O'Shea North Reviews

The worst place I have ever lived. Management are terrible and completely intrusive, there is NO privacy - people from the building are constantly coming into your room and nitpicking. The WiFi is terrible, things are constantly breaking and the management treat residents as cash cows, charging us for things which are not our fault. The management treat you like a child when they want to inspect you but expect you to sort every problem (like the heating and wifi not working) out with private companies by yourself. Please PLEASE do not live here. You will regret it.

Would not recommend. The inspection company is way too strict and they make comments which never been notified at first point, not even in the guideline provided when you moved in. They are inflexible and very uncomfortable to live in such a strict rule such as they prohibit hanging washings in your room.

O'Shea South is is just the new name for Holyrood South, and so this review is identical to the one I provided for the accommodation under that name. Significant variation in quality of life based on where you are in the building, mediocre facilities. Clearly the poor relation of O'Shea North. If you are given a room at the back of the property, you'll have the delights of local vagrants drinking and doing drugs in the street near your window, then screaming and swearing in the early hours of the morning. If you're on the ground floor, locals will slam your windows or throw things at them. We've had a student mugging nearby. Facilities are generally of good standard, but tumble dryers don't work. Probably much nicer if you're on the Holyrood Road side of the property, and not at street level, but I can't recommend from my personal experience, certainly not at this price.
