The “TripAdvisor” style review website for university accommodations was launched in 2015 by graduate, Kristian Else. Else met atrocious student accommodation living standards when he moved to the UK from Australia in 2011 and decided to take action by launching a website where students could express their dismay or delight with university accommodations.
