Helpful booking in and out staff on campus. This is shared accommodation ie. own room with shared facilities and kitchen, so may depend somewhat on who you happen to be sharing with on the night. Clean, tidy and well run.

This room was nothing like the pictures on the internet, if I had known about the overall condition of this apartment I would definitely NOT have booked. Disgusting!!! Kitchen was filthy, there weren't any glasses of any kind, stove was disgusting, the bedrooms were stuffy and there were no fans or ventilation in there either and the pillows were so bad that we had to go any buy new ones.

Great location, how ever remember this is a university and comes with the noise and chaos and antics of one. I was on night shifts so wasn't distubed by the all night partying. I did how ever see the aftermath all around the grounds the morning after.

EXCELLENT ACCOMODATION
Safe secure quiet and perfect location for families needing something close to the hospital. Even though it is the Uni it was perfect. Staff really friendly and all noise quietens down in the evening. Felt safe and secure. Rooms perfect although mattress very firm.
