Reviews of St David's
mouldy, undermaintained houses. shower leaks through the ceiling causing electrics issues with the lights and plugs. unacceptable turnover for maintenance. we waited 4 months and counting on a job to replace mouldy, falling apart kitchen cabinets (that are literally from the 90s) and sink. very old fashioned appliances ( why is the kettle so rusty on the inside??) . insane double standards to the on campus accommodation. plus paying exactly the same as people at st davids with updated, modern kitchens?? i guess the shuttle bus is decent and you are close to town, but realistically no safe routes anywhere to uni or town as the train station and neighbouring establishments are kind of dodgy. even university designated paths are dodgy and I would never walk them alone. read more
I’m writing this in my third semester of living here. Honestly? Do not bother applying here. While I understand certain things were out of the control of the university as the year I lived here was during the pandemic, but frankly there’s plenty of unacceptable things. To start, everything breaks. A list of things broken include, our fridge freezer (spoiling plenty of products), our showers (multiple times, I think around 6 between the two), most of the double glazing windows’ sealant is broken, one of the parts of our countertop, and many lights. Each and every time we contacted maintenance it would take over a week for them to inspect it, let alone fix it, if they did. The sealant on our windows (this moisture build up on the inside which caused black mold growth in two of the rooms) has only been repaired in one room (the one with the most mold). Honestly? Go to another halls. Or go private. You’ll at least get your money’s worth. read more
Your experience will basically depend on who you're put in a house with, can be great living in a house if you're with great people but if you don't like your housemates it's very isolated. Living off campus isn't great but the shuttle bus is reliable. Cheapest accommodation and there's a reason for that. read more
