“How dependable is it to get things fixed?”

“I’d tweak the showers a bit, because the water pressure is pretty low, so it takes a long time to actually get clean. Everything else is fine though, and that’s really the only real change I’d make. I’d just also like the oven to heat up a little faster.”

“The shower area is really uncomfortable because there’s no window, so it gets quite stuffy. Also, the water suddenly turns extremely hot since the handle is loose and it slips down to the hottest setting.”

“I wish we could have chosen our own rooms at the start, before we were given assignments, rather than just being placed in whatever room we were assigned.”

“I’d definitely put more privacy friendly options in the rooms that face Rottenrow Street, because they really don’t offer much privacy, especially on the lower floors. Something like privacy blinds would be a great idea since they still let in natural light while giving you some level of privacy. Another practical and cost effective fix would be privacy window film or coating that you can apply to the windows.”

“I just wish the Strathclyde staff would ring the doorbell every time before they come in to clean the room or do any maintenance work.”
