Q
I've heard that the heating is provided by air source heat pumps - are they good enough to keep the buildings comfortably warm?

Hi , I’m hoping to study paramedic science, and am wondering what the accommodation situation is for them or if it’s a certain block of accommodation paramedics tend to stay in ? Thanks in advance

Student Review: 2.6 /5
By member488160 On 27th June 23 verified Verified student

The wired internet is excellent, wifi unreliable. The halls are on campus, so attending lectures is a breeze. However: There is nothing in the surrounding area, and £650 per month for a grotty box of a room and a warped bedframe is simply not good enough.' Black mould in the shower caused by the mainataince team leaving the shower on while I was away for a week. The cleaning of the halls is apparently the students' responsibility, as I have never seen anybody clean the hallways or stairwell except us. The front entrance is cleaned by one man and a seemingly infinite bucket, as this sole bucket (somehow?) cleans 6 apartment blocks without being refilled. Astonishing technology.

Oxstalls is great for just rolling out of bed into lectures but there are 0 comfy communal areas

10/10 recommend this accommodation if you are studying at oxstalls. Having a 1 minute walk to lectures was amazing and during your hour break you can go home and nap!

Could and should be refurbished as the price is going up on these halls but nothing new is being added. Cannot fault the location however as it is right on campus.

If your lessons are based at oxstalls campus then it’s great cause you can roll up in your pyjamas. People set the fire alarms off a lot during the first few months so there’s sleepless nights. Su bar near too but could be bigger with more things to do

Location was good because it was so close to the uni but it was a 30/40 minute walk from town. The rooms were clean (obviously if you kept it clean) but social spaces ended up dirty because of other flatmates usually.

Prime location as it was on the uni site but it was far too expensive. My room was half the size of the others but I had to pay the same price. There were 4 washing machines for nearly 250 students and the social space wasn’t overly welcoming.

Excellent. I often miss Oxstalls campus purely based on the living quarters which provided excellent privacy, fully operational cooking appliances, en-suite with LARGE study desk. Cleaning was excellent, each week. Wifi could be wired or wireless, as well for gaming consoles, excellent connection. Value for money is questionable, £120 per week during 2015 but appears to have gone up to £140 per week. Perhaps largely due to students abusing heating/water/electricity costs.

Absolutely FANTASTIC!! Despite room sharing and sharing bathrooms, the experience was incredibly fun, dynamic, sociable, freeing!! Lopes is the best first year accommodation and I wish I could travel in a time machine just to experience it for one more night
