“Honestly, it would have helped a lot to get some support in the kitchen, even if it was just through prompts from the staff. I emailed them about the lack of personal responsibility, and they still didn’t really help.”

“There is no direct sunlight where I’m staying right now. I also can’t see outside from my room at all.”

“- I can’t adjust the lighting in the shared spaces, so movie nights end up being really bright.”

“I really wanted the outside construction wrapped up before people moved in. Also, they should group students by the same year level. As a post grad, it’s not great being lumped in with second years, especially when they’re out every night.”

“The security guards come off really rude, and it honestly makes me feel like they wouldn’t help if I needed anything. Some of them are also nasty to residents.”

“The shared areas get pretty noisy. I think they should put up clear signs about which activities are not allowed after a certain hour.”

“It feels like some rooms are twice as big but cost the same, and you still end up paying £160 a week for a smaller room. To be honest, that seems like a joke.”

“Living with people who are on the same wavelength is a bit of a mixed bag for me. A couple of my flatmates love to party, but the rest of us don’t, so it gets pretty awkward when they have loads of people round for parties.”
