The CampusHomes badge

We check every hostel in person

A listing earns the badge only after all six checks pass on site. The rule is enforced by the platform, not left to marketing language.

VerifiedOne badge. One clear standard.
  1. 01

    Location confirmed

    An inspector stands at the property and records its real GPS position.

  2. 02

    Rooms measured

    Room sizes and capacities are checked so the listing matches the building.

  3. 03

    Amenities tested

    Water, power, Wi-Fi and security are checked in person.

  4. 04

    Photos taken on site

    The images come from the inspection visit, not a marketing folder.

  5. 05

    Landlord identified

    We confirm who owns or manages the property before it goes live.

  6. 06

    Safety checked

    Locks, lighting and exits are reviewed before a listing earns the badge.

The badge records what we checked on the inspection date. It does not cover day-to-day conduct or later changes. You agree rent and tenancy terms directly with the landlord. See something that does not match? Report it.

Answers before you book

Questions students ask us.

Clear terms matter when you are choosing where to live. Here are the essentials.

How much does it cost to reserve a room?+

Reserving a room is free while the platform grows.

Do I pay rent through CampusHomes?+

No. Rent, deposits and tenancy agreements stay directly between you and the landlord. CampusHomes does not collect or mark up your rent.

What does Verified actually mean?+

A CampusHomes inspector physically visited the property and confirmed location, rooms, amenities, photos, landlord identity and safety before publication.

Can I cancel a reservation?+

Yes. A reservation can be cancelled any time from the reservations area in your account, which also shows its current status.
