“The rooms seem to be getting better maintained, but I still feel like there were a bunch of repeat problems that really should have been sorted out the first time.”

“There are more chances to connect with other guests right in the place where you stay.”

“A real feeling of community, and somehow encouraging people to actually talk and connect with one another.”

“I really wish there were better public facilities.”

“There’s a bit more room, especially in the bathroom (but honestly, you get what you pay for!). Everything else was really nice.”

“The room quality wasn’t great. We had silverfish in our room, and the bathroom floor already had stains that didn’t seem like they were ever going to come out.”

“I find it a bit hard, mainly because there are so many international students. As a British student, I don’t really get much interaction with them, and that’s totally okay, it is what it is.”

“The laundry setup. I get that Circuit laundry is pretty common in student housing, and I’m not against that, but with only two washers and two dryers shared between everyone, it feels a bit tight. If one machine goes wrong, you’re basically left with just one working option. Honestly, there should be more laundry machines.”

“There’s a space between the wall and the bed, and I even saw a spider in there.”

“Honestly, this mattress feels pretty plain and not very comfortable, especially for how much you pay.”
