Student housing has received a lot of media attention lately. There have been protests against rent rises, reports on the rise of luxury student housing and more recently news that students are preparing to take legal action against a top university for offering them mouldy and mice-infested flats.

But what is the reality of modern student renter? We want to hear from our readers about the changes to the marketplace. Are you worried about rent rises? Are students being forced to live in poor-quality accommodation? How has it affected your time as a student? Have you rented one of the new luxury student housing offerings? What do you think? Share your stories with us.
