The views and location were prime, but you will have to deal with sharing facilities with privileged students who were not very respectful to the shared spaces…..
The room was small with a kitchen, which is largely sufficient unless if you wanted to cook a more proper meal. They didn’t have a kettle, oil, salt and pepper in the room. The bed was comfy but would have preferred firmer pillows.
The staff was generally kind and friendly but it was the other residents there that really turned me off. The shared kitchen was absolutely disgusting when I went there on Saturday morning. Someone had put their uneaten/leftover food in the sink instead of the bin…!?!? People left their baking trays and cooking utensils on the counter. It was so disrespectful and the most disgusting I’ve ever seen in any shared kitchen.
There is also a music room which sounds nice, but basically two girls have used that space every night when we tried to go. I tried negotiating with them to have an hour or two in there but they insisted they were there 7pm-12am every night and the most they could do was leave at 11:30pm for us…? I don’t understand why residents at this place don’t seem to understand the concept of sharing and mutual respect???
Anyway, if you plan to just stay in your room, bring your own necessities like hangers and extra towels and cooking basics it’s worth the value. Just a bit shocked at my interactions with the residents….
