Chesterman house is overall a suitable place to live specially for a fresher. it's about 5 minutes walk to the university and pretty close to tube station. The rooms are quite small but clean enough. The security guard is here untill about 5 PM, which is quite disappointing considering my expectations to have security guards 27/4. It's a great place to meet new people and adapt with the new environment. However, it can get a bit loud sometimes but nothing to not be able to move passed by. Also, the wifi works perfectly which is a very important and positive point for me, overall, it has been an average experience.
Great location right by the university and near local shops. Good pub nightlife around the area and five min walk to overground stations. Friendly people!! Always cleaned and maintenance will fix anything! Social smoking courtyard area outside and big kitchens for parties! All ensuite bathrooms which is great!
Even though Chesterman House got refurbished recently, it has had loads of problems throughout this year; such as no heating, hot water, light and internet.
