What a nightmare. In summation; the en-suite is the size of a small wardrobe, the shower constantly clogs, the mattress is so hard, the kitchen is an absolute old broken mess (the counter was chipped, the fridge had a missing shelf and the microwave broke). The management left me without a key card solution for an entire week during the Beast from the East and all of block G had to use manual keys to unlock our door. 142 a week for absolute garbage - oh, and don't you dare try reason with the rude inconsiderate management. read more

I lived in these halls during my second year. There is very little positive I can say about it other than it had an en suite. Five people lived in one flat which wouldn't look out of place in a prison. The kitchen was very poorly maintained and I was the only one of my flatmates who actually cleaned it. Eventually the kitchen became uninhabitable and I only used it for microwaving ready meals or washing plates (I was the only one who actually bought washing materials). The bed was rather large but the mattress was too hard to get a good night's sleep on. All this for £618 a month (at least I got a 10% discount for applying early), when I found out some of my friends were living in far superior accommodation for far less I felt I'd been conned read more

I stayed in New Carnegie Court in second year after spending my first year in the now closed Crombie Halls. New Carnegie is very much overrated. Five people stayed in one flat which wouldn't look out of place in a prison. At first it was clean but that certainly did not last long. I was the only one of my flatmates that cleaned up and after a while the bin began to overflow and the kitchen became uninhabitable. Eventually I took to eating in my room and only used the kitchen for heating up ready meals and washing up plates. It was also 15-20 minute walk to the university. All this for £618 per month (thankfully I got a 10% discount). I soon realized that some of my friends were living in far superior accommodation for far less and I felt I had been conned read more

(3) But if it still gets too cool for your taste, each room sports a compact heater with a futuristic touch switch that even shuts off by itself when it deems it warm enough! At New Carnegie Court friends are always just a few walls away! With over 100 flats you are bound to find at least a few friends. And if you’re thirsting for someone to make you feel better about your general person, never fear, at New Carnegie Court you will always be able to come out into the courtyard on a monday morning to see the broken glass bottles and trash left outside by people who claim to be functioning adults. You can have all this and more for just £610 a month! (That is £3050 a month for you and your flatmates combined! Only £27 450 all together for the entire school year!) read more
