“The amenities feel more reliable, and the appliances have been updated.”

“I really liked that we could choose to be placed with a friend instead of just getting assigned to any random room.”

“It was cheaper, and it was really well cleaned when we moved in.”

“The cost was fair, I had plenty of room in the fridge and freezer, and the breakdown was straightforward.”

“The place just doesn’t feel properly maintained. In the kitchen, there are cracks in the worktop that look like they’ve been left there, or only patched over with hot glue. The cracks by the sink are the worst for hygiene, since water keeps getting into the gaps and then soaking into the wood chipboard underneath.”

“Get more people in the flat and a bigger kitchen.”

“The room is a good size, and the soundproofing is solid.”

“The place is pretty small, so you end up knowing everyone.”

“The bathroom. For what you pay, it’s really tiny, so that’s the only thing I’d improve.”

“The repair speed was pretty slow. We went almost three weeks in winter without any hot or cold running water because nobody came to fix it for a while after we reported it. On top of that, the kitchen hot water tap was out for about two weeks, so we couldn’t really wash up properly for that time either.”
