“Our hot water system is really unreliable. At some point every month, the water turns cold for a few days, and it’s supposed to work properly.”
“I wanted a kettle in the shared kitchen. The landlord doesn’t supply one.”
“The elevator has been acting up, and we sometimes don’t get hot water.”
“I wish there were more communication between the students.”
“Better flatmates overall, and the people in the flat are much quieter too. The door also doesn’t make as much noise.”
