The location of the accompdation was great and better than expected, it was a 15 min walk to the campus and 10 min walk to the city centre. There is also a tesco close which is useful for bits and bobs. Unfortunately we had a number of problems with leaks to the washing machine and sink, this caused a strange smell in the kitchen. The rooms where cosy and very nice for student accommodation. I had a room on the bottom floor which initially I was worried about. However it was very safe and quiet. It is ideal when it comes to exam period because the halls are very relaxed. The staff which look after the halls are very friendly and answered all questions we had as soon as possible.

The location isnt the best next to a busy main road. The social experience is linited as the accommodation is mainly postgraduates and international students. My room has been good apart from the shower being temprmental

Good location, only a 10 minute walk to uni and a 15 minute walk to quay side. The rooms are very good sizes with a double bed, wardrobe desk draws and an onsuite bathroom.

Room was spacious and well maintained. Kitchen had everything needed. Even as a first year living in the accomodation it was still enjoyable. Location wise for uni it is handy, but for a night out a taxi I'd useful. The internet was very quick, even at peak times. One main problem was lack of TV signal in the social area.
