East Slope Reviews

East slope in my opinion was a place that i wish i could have avoided but i couldn't as i was enetering via adjustment which meant i was just thrown in east slope obviously. It is a very sociable place but from what i've seen, this is only the case if you're a drinker or partyer. Nicknamed the 'slums or ghetto' area by many people in other accomodations, i coudn't agree more because it was really dirty most of the time outside and inside. Also, the condintions inside my flat were so terrible, it felt like the place was falling apart. Stayed there for two months and left as soon had the chance. Only positive is the central location on campus.

East Slope is the place to be! Honestly it more than makes up for anything you can complain about - it's not perfect, but you will make the best friends here and have everything you need, I wouldn't live anywhere else for the same rent. Live here while you can, you'll never find another place like it <3

Brighton's biggest todge situated in this slope, sloppy ucks you won't find anything badder. Rum bombs invented here #Omizzle

I was put into East Slope when it wasn't my first choice and now I don't think I'd want to stay anywhere else! East Slope is placed perfectly on campus (close to bars, bus stops and lecture halls) and looks most like a normal flat in my opinion! If you're not fussy about sharing a shower with people or not having a sink in your room then this is such a good choice and you will save a lot of money (Especially if you're a First Generation Scholar because I pay £35 a week). It is so easy to make tonnes of friends because houses are so close together and people are super friendly so a lot of the time we'll find ourselves wondering around the slope and going in other flats and making friends! Reviews I read before coming here spoke about noise issues but they haven't been a problem so far, once in your room it is pretty quiet!

Feels like you live in a prison cell. Avoid at all costs.

East Slope is a great budget option, with decent sized rooms and basic facilities. It is the most sociable of all the housing and is perfect for anyone not too fussy but looking for a good time.

The lowest of the low. Really cheap but it really isn't worth it if you don't have friends in better accommodation where you can go to

East slope is a brilliant hall for socialising and the closest halls to everything on campus with a walk of approx 2mins. Noise was a problem occasionally but calling the porter and sending in a complaint fixed this problem most of the time. Cleaning was also a slzifht problem but this was due to housemates not cleaners.

I loved my time in East Slope, the way the halls are set out allowed me to make friends quickly and easily, and the porters were extremely friendly. Can't fault it!

Best year of my life hands down. It may be scruffy on the surface but its without a doubt the best place to be on campus. Wouldn't change it.

It is such a fun place to live but you have to be okay with a lot of mess and with mould and spiders etc.

Boot camp for life, those that didn't like it couldn't handle the slope!

Not the best of places but great value for money and best for socialising

Have a friend in East Slope so you can visit. Don't make the mistake, as I did, of actually living here.

Great experience. It was cheap, good for socialising, got cleaned weekly and rooms were nice

Unfortunately getting knocked down this year. The University of Sussex slums, but so brilliant. No experience like living in East Slope

East slope does what it says on the tin. Yes it really is as bad as everyone says it is, and there's no wonder it's previously been described as the favelas. So noisy you can never sleep. If you want parties nearly every night then this place is for you. If, however, you value your beauty sleep, then East slope is not the place to go.

Stayed in east slope for my first year of uni and had a great time.

East Slope is legendary...not the cleanest, or prettiest, but it's got character. Wooden beams and you can sit on the roof and watch the beautiful sunset.Cheap as well, about £80 a week...that's because it's falling down.

Cheap and cheerful but the best atmosphere and people. Had a great time at east slope.

East slope isn't as bad as it looks, its cheap and is the most social place at Sussex.

The buildings were old but if you feel like you'd prefer to live in a community rather than living in one of the brand new sterile buildings then East slope is for you.

No comfy sofas/ living room- dining room and kitchen are the only social spaces. Wouldn't have gone for any other accommodation though

fun and stuff woo east slope massive

Cheap and cheerful! Really sociable, a bit run down but you don't really care about that in the end

The halls themselves were fine, but only one shower between you and no social space besides the kitchen/dining room. Socially, in less you're a druggy, this won't be the place for you

For £80 a week, this is fine. Working kitchen appliances, fun night life, friendly people etc. But the best aspect to this is the field behind East slope. Amazing view from the hill and great to chill on with friends.

You won't regret living in east slope. Next to the bar and co-op and best halls on campus to meet people and av it large

Love it! Very sociable and friendly. Might not be the prettiest, but you won't regret it.
