If you want something that looks fancy and will impress your friends who don't go to Royal Holloway, then these are the Halls for you. However, if you want reliable internet, power and a building where the Fire Alarm isn't regularly set off at 3 am, then Founder's isn't for you.
Yes the rooms are okay, they are relatively spacious and yes the Instagram photos you will get each morning and evening as the sun rises and sets over the Quad are amazing, but it's not worth the money you pay for it.
The building is cold and drafty, the elevator regularly fails to work, the doors lock at 7 pm, and often the outer doors are locked meaning you're running around the building trying to find a way in after a night at the Student Union.
The Common Rooms are filled with old couches with various inconspicuous and unexplainable stains, a TV that is useless unless you bring your wires and batteries for the remote.
In short, it's pretty, but also pretty awful.
