Sallies is fantastic. A classic oxbridge college style environment. 2 min walk from the library, 30 seconds from Younger Hall and The Quad. Dining hall is beautiful. Very social. All the rooms are regularly cleaned, as are the bathrooms. Only disadvantage is that like 99% of first years share rooms. Single rooms are prioritised for returners.

Value for money? No hall, except perhaps self catereds in Gannochy, is well priced. Accommodation is pricy in St Andrews. Sallies has a fab location, 2mins walk to Buchanan lecture theatre for all Arts students, 20mins to science, bit of a drag but still, good location Wardens in halls are a pain, stuck up PHD students who had a serious power complex, main reason I'm moving to private accommodation for 2nd year. Food is fine, social spaces are good, and you make a lot of friends in halls. Sallies committee was fab, lots of nice events, just a shame they didn't plan our end of year ball.

A fairly average halls. Quite outdated, odd smell too. Most students were highly anti-social, luckily I knew people in other halls to mix with. The location was good, not too far from all your amenities.
Amazing room to myself with a balcony.
Amazing hall spirit, numerous exciting social activities, lovely location and amazing views from rooms - both to the sea and the front lawn. Rooms in great condition and very cosy.
Gorgeous hall in the middle of town, close to Buchanan, Swallowgate, Irvine, and many more. Five minutes walk to the library, which is truly ideal in exam/revision period. WiFi connection and heating could be better. Very friendly wardens and staff, and great communal spaces.
really want to stay here next year!!!
A beautiful and loving place to live. Eduroam (the wifi) is terrible, though, but that's a common theme throughout St Andrews. Management and the wardens can also be a little pickey and strange about common spaces and study spaces.
my top choice of residence for st andrews!
The best location, prettiest building and most iconic.
I loved being in the this hall in my first year at uni. Very close knit community! Will always be a home away from home
The food is not really good, but really worth to live. Location and community is great
Sallies is definitely the best hall the University has to offer; even though it is old, it has an amazing location and traditions associated within its walls.
Fantastic place to be a first year at St Andrews.
There is no such a hall ike this!
Amazing community and atmosphere. Lovely people, wardens are the best and just amazing all around.
Lovely hall! Real family feel from the wardens and the rooms are lovely
Great group atmosphere allowing for people to make great friends.
Such a beautiful fun place to live
