During my first year at uni I was placed in Pittville halls of residence. It was a building site for my whole stay there, it's quite far away from campuses on foot 25-30mins approx. Staff were not that friendly and didn't care for complaints or issues. My ensuite was very unclean and dusty, one of the taps didn't work and the toilet didn't flush properly and still to the last day they didn't bother fixing the toilet. On the first day the bathroom mirror door broke and I had to pay for replacement hinges. Social space is a tiny room shared between 5-6 students, the students i lived with were very rude, loud and unfriendly and after emails of complaints and transfer requests to head of Pittville accommodation they did nothing to help with the issue. For the price of accommodation which was over £5000 a year and is increasing next year I would not say it's worth it at all, I had a terrible first year living experience.
