About Vita Student Westgate
Sunderland is a port city in North East England's Tyne and Wear county. Its origins can be traced back to the Stone Age. Sunderland residents are referred to as "Mackems."
Vita Student Westgate is a student housing in Sunderland that offers different types of studios and shared apartments. All rooms feature a bed, a wardrobe, a desk and a chair, and a kitchenette.
The property offers many facilities and services. The facilities include superfast Wi-Fi, a gym, a study area, a coffee lounge, and a cycle store. Other services include laundry, different activities, a 24/7 on-site team, key fob access, and CCTV cameras.
The building is perfectly-situated on Westgate Road, only a short drive from the centre of the city. It has many exciting and lively locations nearby, including eatery spots, entertainment venues, and other places of interest. If you like to have a taste of Middle Eastern cuisine, Alsham Restaurant is a nearby eatery offering Lebanese dishes in a welcoming and friendly atmosphere. If you’re craving a mouth-watering pizza, we suggest you check out Pinocchio Ristorante, which serves Italian cuisine plates including pasta and pizza in a colourful setting. Zapatista Burrito Bar is another nearby eatery offering Mexican food, including burritos, in a vibrant space.
When you need to do some grocery shopping, Tesco Express supermarket is just a short walk from the building, and it has a variety of groceries and goods to cater to your needs. Before you set off for your busy day on campus, we suggest you go for a refreshing morning walk at Leazes Park, where you can enjoy the sun and the green scenery. Over the weekend, you may enjoy a night out with your pals and watch the latest box office movies at the Cineworld movie theatre. You may also choose to go on a shopping spree at Metrocentre shopping mall, where you’ll find lots of shops, stores, and boutiques. While in the city, we highly recommend you take a walk across the Tyne Bridge, where you can enjoy the views of the river.

Payment
International students can pay in 2 instalments for long-term bookings without a UK guarantor (one in August and the other in January).
- During September, all students are required to pay their 1st instalment within 48 hours from the time of booking.
There are 3 different payment plan options for our students in all buildings:
1 instalment – no charge
2 instalments – 2% premium
3 instalments – 3% premium
All 1st instalment payments for new bookings have now been changed to 1st July ’21.
Cancellation Policy
With all bookings for the 21/22 academic year, we allow a 5-day cooling-off period after paying the Advance License Fee if your accommodation is booked prior to 25th May 2021. After the 25th May 2021, the cooling-off period becomes 48 hours.
If you cancel within 5 days (or 48 hours after 25th May 2021), the Advance Payment will be fully refunded to the account from which it was paid. Once you have booked and the 5 days has elapsed (or 48 hours after 25th May 2021), you are bound into a legal licence agreement which requires you to pay for the full period of the licence agreement. We suggest if you are unsure about exam results, receiving your visa or other condition on you attending University that you contact us to discuss on +44(0)203 096 1717.
After booking and the expiry of the 5-days (or 48 hours after 25th May 2021), the only way to release yourself from the license agreement is to find a replacement tenant who will take on the full liability for payment of the License Fee.
BOOK WITH CONFIDENCE:
1. Cancelling within the cool-off period: You can cancel within 5 days after making a booking with a full refund of any amount paid provided it was before 25th May 2021. After that date, you can cancel only within 48 hours with a full refund.
2. You can cancel at any time if:
- You cannot travel at any date between the start of your tenancy agreement up to 15th January 2022 due to travel bans.
- Your course is cancelled.
- Your course start date is delayed in both offline and online learning from the start of your tenancy period until 15th January 2022 or later.
- If your visa to study in the UK is declined.
- If you are declined for a place at the university.
3. To cancel outside the cool-off period, you must submit the proof in writing within 48 hours of being aware of the reason for cancellation. If it is due to a declined visa, you can cancel at any time before 16th August 2021.
