“For the price, it honestly doesn’t feel like I’m getting the most value out of my accommodation. By the time I’ve spent that much on rent, I end up pretty broke.”

“Honestly, people don’t really chat with each other unless they’re in their own flats, so it’s pretty tough to make friends, especially if you’re the shy type.”

“We remodeled the bathroom and the bedrooms in the older building.”

“I guess I just have to be a bit strict about it, because there are people who hang around in the laundry areas. If you’re trying to do your washing and other people are just loitering there, it’s really not ideal. Also, some students aren’t very considerate, but they don’t really get told off.

“They cut down on how many emails the accommodation team sends.”

“Bathrooms with leaks and damp issues.”
