The building cleanliness is super good. The building has awesome amenities such as the common room, the gym, and the courtyards. the staff are amazing and they put on little events/ social gatherings that bring the students together. Like the bake off, the pancake day celebration, and the pumpkin carving. Overall this place is absolutely amazing and I am glad I chose this place over all the others.

Lovely space. Would recommend my family and friends. Every thing is close and central no need for extra hustle or to make unplanned alternatives. Walking distance to the town centre as well
