, my experience was highly positive. With its convenient location, well-maintained facilities, and strong sense of community, it provided an ideal living space for students. While there’s room for minor improvements, I would wholeheartedly recommend Ty Pont Haearn, ] to fellow students seeking a comfortable and enriching living experience during their academic journey.and the cleaning department helped us in cleaning the kitchen they very really friendly.

expensive for what it is considering another accommodation around the corner is the same price for a much nicer and bigger flat, social areas, room, bathroom, kitchen, and a gym! staff are generally lovely, helpful, and understanding in my experience. washing machines are circuit laundry plus which is a terrible terrible choice as circuit is a massive pain to use. would be better if rooms had more storage space such as more shelving (which could definitely fit) and especially more bathroom storage. closest big supermarket is lidl, everything else is a ridiculously far walk, but the building is right across from the uni and right next to town which is super convenient. definitely a first year living space only, couldn’t see myself choosing to stay here again, especially considering my loan doesn’t even cover my rent!! if it’s the only choice you have as a first year student then go for it, you’ll be fine, but if you’re able to then go elsewhere.

Outside of the buliding looks awful and the inside isn't much better, The kitchen is really nice and the rooms look nice until you see the bathroom and meet the added room mates which are Silver Fish I have had a huge problem with them in my room and frankly is disgusting, the mattress looks like it hasn't been changed since the place opened and now comfortable at all, the bathroom is very small and not the most appealing and the lifts are always breaking

Lifts are never working, don’t seem to be allowed to stay in the same room over the summer, it’s ridiculous how much problems it causes when you want to stay.

All staff are friendly and welcoming. If there’s any issues they help out as much as they can. Lifts can get annoying as they break a lot however they are getting fixed for next year.

Nothing wrong with the staff but resolving issues like lifts not working can take months and the social areas are lacklustre. The rooms are nice and I do feel at home in my space.

Excellent location, super convenient for shopping, getting to class, nights out are convenient without the hassle of paying for Uber as home is just a walk away. Staff are friendly, maintainance issues aren't always resolved super quickly but they're friendly enough about it. I play games online and the WIFI is fab. Occasionally disconnects from some devices for a minute or two but that's rare and it's never affected my PC. There's events regularly with freebies that make your day better like breakfast and snacks. Communal space is small but rarely too busy to sit down, the seats are comfy and well kept. The rooms get super warm so fans are a must, but the sun is great for growing succulents! Solid accommodation, I'm booked over the summer and for year 2 as well!

S*** hole. Constant maintenance. Don’t go there. Security guards constantly Harass everyone. Railway is next to it far too loud. Constant work and things breaking. The PlayStation they say about has never worked. Rooms are an oven don’t move here unless u have industrial sized fans. Don’t recommend.

Expensive for what it is, all ensuites which is nice. Lifts break quite often which is a pain if you're higher than the 8th floor (there are 21) sound from the railways/railworks and building site are very annoying, especially early morning and at night. Great location, 3/4 beds, really nice and social

Its a great halls! They celebrate events like St. Patricks day with cider and biscuits, Hot chocolate in the foyer when its cold and advent calenders and easter eggs for each flat at times of celebration. Lovely management although the night security can be a bit over-powering when its unnecerssary. Overall, great first year experience, I will miss it!
