Very useful app for both room provider and room seeker. It worked for me efficiently and quickly.

Hilda Gordon, 2025-02-01

Very bad experience. All the photos are fake, and SpareRoom absolutely doesn't care about it. I visited around 30 houses, and all of them were old, very dirty, and much smaller than they appeared in the photos. I suggest you avoid using this app if you don't want to waste money travelling from house to house and getting disappointed.
