“The bathroom keeps backing up, and honestly it would be great if it didn’t.”
“The one change I’d really like to see in my current place is less noise at night. Having a calmer atmosphere after hours would make day to day life feel so much better, and it would help everyone get more restful sleep. Simple steps like adding noise control and putting quiet hours in place would go a long way.”
“There’s absolutely no diversity in my flat. My flatmates don’t talk to me, and I’m the only person of my ethnicity living here.”
“There just isn’t enough room for the number of fridges in the flat. Also, when I moved in, the shower wasn’t properly cleaned, so I ended up having to deep clean it myself.”
“Sometimes there’s noise, but I made some “buddies” before I moved in so I’d have a few people I could talk to.”
“I think the place could use a bit more attention every semester, like touching up wear and tear, repainting areas, and getting the oven cleaned. Also, the rooms are just basic white, like a blank canvas, so residents can put their own decor in.”
“I’d like to see more safety for the residents. Also, it would be good to do a personal traits test before assigning flats, since that could help improve how well flatmates get along and fit into their living situation.”
“People should be considerate of others at night and keep the noise down.”
“I just want a clearer idea of whether people are actually going to move into the empty rooms in the apartment.”
“Security really needs to be stepped up about the drugs on the property.”
