While the Accommodation Services are quick to deal with issues as they come, and the Wi-Fi is decent for what it is (minus the fact that some devices that do not have web browsers, such as my Nintendo Switch) are unable to get onto the Wi-Fi, the main problem is the social setting, the frequency of issues in the village, and the room itself. People constantly disrespected the quiet curfew, often waking me up at 3am with crashing, not to even mention the Mendip stalker incident. The room itself also has the same atmosphere as a prison cell, stuck at a constant dull orange light with windows that barely open, making the entire hall become stuffy, overheated and claustrophobic. Problems also came up constantly over the amenities. In the first week alone, there were reports of floods, showers not turning off, hobs not working and much more. Only come here if you absolutely have to and have nowhere else to go.
Love student village, great location
Student accommodation is always going to be expensive, living in halls is no exception. Cleaning was non existent as we were required to keep our own living spaces clean. The benefits of living in halls was the ease at which the accommodation was set up and managed, the social aspect of being situated at the campus, and all bills being included in the price of the rent.
I really enjoyed living in halls
Mendip is lovely and right next to the dip, a stream runs through the middle and plenty of grass and trees and open chilled areas to enjoy the sun and the snow
Bad internet & not many use the social areas, but amazing freshers.
Very good halls, really enjoyed my time here
Okay halls but being in walscourt is better
Love it here and I there is a good atmosphere
Wired internet is great, wifi is sometimes terrible
Great hall, however on reflection would’ve rather been in wallscourt. Basically my flatmates were s*** and only me and another guy ever went out or wanted to do stuff. All that said it was good having a quiet flat so I could still get on with work when I needed to
The student village is in a good location and is a short walk away from the majority of uni buildings and close to the north entrance and local shops. The common areas are a decent size and the walls are thick so it’s not too noisy either.
Could do with a common room but other than that its a great hall
Friendly place to be, always something to do
Only the outside corridors and lift/ stairs gets cleaned. Good management of fire alarms
The flat itself it fantastic! Lots of room and you get an ensuite However, it's very very noisy and the staff don't do anything about noise complaints. I complained about 20 times about loud music and they did nothing! Just said ignore it
Even though it is expensive, you can use as much heating/water/electricity, etc as you want and not pay any extra. Location - so useful for lectures and library! Will miss this next year! Wish there wee more cafes/restaurants, etc open on campus, and more on campus social activities. Hall management-24 hour security, reception staff are always there. Cleaning - other unis have cleaners for flat communal areas, but we don't. They only do the block lifts and entrance areas. Social experience is quite good because you have neighbouring flats, etc. And loads of people live in the student village, but would be nice to have more on campus activities.
