I have shared a room with my friend on the Eastbourne Road for 3,5 months, and it was a great experience. We were here for our study and we both did a placement. For short stay as well as long stay Roza's accommodations in Stratford are great when it comes to location and value.
It was really cool to meet all the different people that shared the house with us; people on holiday as well as students.
Although the kitchen is a bit rickety everything works fine and everything you need is provided, especially the washing machine/dryer is a huge plus! The rooms are clean and well maintained, with good beds and enough closet space.
I would recommend the Eastbourne road highly for students as well as tourists, since it has everything you need for the best price you can get!
