During the academic term (2019-2020) I stayed here which I would say by the end of it. Im really glad I did decide to have confirmed going to this accomodation. However, there are problems which I believe you should be aware of before choosing to live here which is your priorities. I wanted to live somewhere that was social and busy but I needed my own bathroom. Further I wanted to live somewhere that felt luxury which this definitely delivers. Although the rooms are smaller than the other accomodations, further from campus (not a problem for, me) showers are especially small and the common room is bland - in context to there being too open space. This isn't necessarily a huge problem yet, with cheap furniture didn't make it feel like it was worth the value on top you don't get supplied a toaster, storage space needed to be bigger and the walls are especially thin. So, if you are hoping to live in a accomodation with less sound pollution, I wouldn't stay here.
