Eddie Colman Court

insects in the bathroom, fire alarm goes off every 10 minutes, staff are pretty sound and the wifi is really good if you’re a gamer or whatever. no lounge in flats but i guess you get what you pay for. overall id stay here if you are on a budget but i recommend peel park much more

I stayed in a 4 person flat there in my first year of university (2016/17). The halls were alright for the price - they were cheap but had all the essentials. The bath and kitchen were shared which could sometimes be unpleasant if someone refuses to tidy up after themselves. We had a schedule for cleaning the bathroom, wiping surfaces, vacuuming, and taking the bins out. The halls are located 10 minutes away from the university campus, there is a bus stop right in front of the building, and all amenities are located within 10 minutes as well. There is a gym on site which I used almost daily. It had a few treadmills, an elliptical and weights and this was all I needed. The building also had a cinema room and a large kitchen with dining tables for larger gatherings. Sometimes my friends and I would have a meal there. It does require booking prior to using it though which can be troublesome for more spontaneous events.

Vile conditions, poor security, unsafe area but good for shops, good activities. My flat and others' flats are infested with silverfish, and there was a mouse in the common room, common room is tiny so it's hard to socialise especially when there is no communal area in the flat.

This student village is located in a good area with all the amenities in walkable distance along with the university of salford as well. Social life is also good and the maintainance is also good. Experienced n well behaved staff.

It's so close to Salford Shopping centre which makes it a lot easier to shop about for food and groceries. Lidl and Aldi are really close and if your cheeky enough there's a Tesco extra in view of my window! The move in was simple and easy and my flatmates are really clean and easygoing. The facilities are alright for the value and there's loads of fun stuff to do on site, like little event that they have where they bring in alpacas for you to pet, guide dogs, Halloween nights, barbecue nights, and loads more!

I stayed in Eddie Colman in my first year. While it wasn't the best experience ever, it was not as bad as people would have you believe. The staff are amazing and helpful, and try to organize events for the residents, without much payoff usually. The big problem is the fact that the buildings are quite old and carry a very depressive aura.

Pros: The rooms are a decent size, all staff are friendly and happy to help, the location is great as you're across the road from uni but also a 5 min walk from the shops, you have communal areas that you can hire out Cons: half the radiators in our flat doesn't work, the fire alarm goes off about twice a week, you don't have my social space in your flat, you don't have a broom; a kettle; a toaster; or a hoover with the flat, live next to the police station so often hear sirens going off, get people coming to your door talking about God or leaflets for clubs coming through the door

Overall this accommodation is fine and has everything you need. However, the layout of the flat is not designed to give you a social space. There is no communal space and/or living room in the flat which makes it more difficult to connect with your flat mates. Fair prices for the area still.

The eddie colman court is fit for use, but could use renovating, as there are many signs of facilities being quite old.

Best value for money, great atmosphere and amazing staff. Excellent location, easy for transport links.

They can do a flexible contract for all student, so some student can start their contract earlier and ends early.

Location is great, close to suoermarkets, bus stops, allertom building. Hall facilities: old carpet, free gym, Social experience: it's nice to have hall activities during special occasions Internet: poor signal

Near a shopping centre and a Tesco which is very handy. Next to a police station so it can be noisy hearing sirens at all hours. Would recommend.

It is a very socialable place. A great communal kitchen. Good gym.. okay laundry. There's always some events. The actual rooms are livable for the price. My room has mold which may be affecting my health but a part from that everything is okay for what you pay for.
