The halls are clean, it’s a nice invironment to live in, the courtyard is a nice place to chill with the lights, it’s pretty unsociable compared to most halls however, no one really talks to eachother and there isn’t much of a sense of community, it’s more like living in private flats. The washing facilities aren’t the best, often your clothes are drenched in water when the cycles finished or the dryer doesn’t work and we have to pay for this on top of our exravogant rent. The wifi is also pretty bad which is irritating when trying to do uni work and your internet won’t load to watch videos. There is also no phone signal in halls, when work tries to call me or anyone from home tries to call when I’m at home the call does go through and no one can get hold of me. It’d be good if we had better printing facilities in halls, even if we had credit we had to top up for the ink would be good, the printers print for free with delivery but they have an advert on the letter head of the paper which isn’t ideal when you’re trying to print work Wifi Washing Printing facility

Location - being on the Victoria line has made travelling around so easy, especially as this line runs 24 hours on weekends. - there is nothing much in the local area, just a tesco express and the retail park which includes lidl, willow, boots and Iceland. These supermarkets are useful for shopping but there are no social places like bars, clubs a range of restaurants. The facilities - not a very sociable halls however that could vary depending on types of tenants - rooms are fairly modern however wear and tear is starting to show and some furniture has broken easily

The cleanliness and staff were great, however at my time of residence I was a first year student put in a block of third year and masters students, which made my time there very lonely as I did not have sociable flatmates that were my age or were interested in the freshers activities.

The hall is located in Tottenham hale, which is a convinient place to be, although it can be said to be somewhat shady and unsafe The residence has a courtyard, a common room with a pool table, a giant floor sized chess set, an ice cream basking machine and some drinks vending machine. It has various laundry rooms, which you pay For, and there's also a dry cleaners next door, as well as a gym

I think the social aspect of it is amazing, they put on events for us to socialise and talk. My room has a lot storage so it's really helpful. it's clean for the most part but wish they did a tiny bit more cleaning.

Emily Bowes Court is very close to tube station with dry cleaners, gym, gp and Tesco express just on the side of the building. Nearby are shops for food and basic necessities. Fast food places like Burger King, KFC and pizza express only 4 minute walk.The accommodation has an app that can be used for notifications on parcels delivered, laundry machines (with alerts when nearly finished), maintenance issues. The app can also be used before you get here to connect with your flat mates.The location also offers free black and white printing that prints with an ad on one end of the paper. It offers various activities that change every month. Free yoga and movie nights are on offer. The room is spacious with various storage spaces, but for me this was not enough.
