Noise

“Backs onto the bike shed & isn't double-glazed so you can hear everything through the window & the walls are also pretty thin - being underneath the kitchen & next to the staircase & laundry room isn't ideal! That said, I've never found it too loud to sleep or work.” (Jan 2008)

“Not noisy at all as room is facing away from the street. A bit of noise from just outside the window because the bike shed is on the other side and there are people going in and out but it's very minimal” (Feb 2007)

Gyp Room

“5 people sharing & it's on the floor above - LOADS of cupboard space.” (Jan 2008)

“It is up one floor. There's a reasonable amount of space, and it still has hobs. Lots of storage, but only a small fridge. Shared by 5 or 6 people.” (Feb 2007)

Bath Room

“There're two bathrooms (a men's and a women's) in the basement shared between the two people on the ground floor (though often used by others cos they're the closest to the door & the only one's with baths).” (Jan 2008)

“Very good, the power shower is lovely to wake up to. There are two showers for each gender, down one floor in the basement. As the people on higher floors use showers up there then there's just you and the one other person on the ground floor. No problems competing for showers at all.” (Feb 2007)

Furniture

“A desk, a desk chair, 2 arm chairs, bed, wardrobe, shelving unit & shelves.” (Jan 2008)

“Desk, bed, coffee table, reasonable sized wardrobe, 2 soft chairs, one desk chair. All sturdy and ok looking but nothing showy.” (Feb 2007)

Best Feature

“In the centre of town - on the same road as Sainsbury's, close to Caius & a 5 min cycle to most other places.” (Jan 2008)

“Hugely convenient in the centre of town on the ground floor. Sainsburys is 43 sec away.” (Feb 2007)

Worst Feature

“It's pretty small & doesn't have much storage space.” (Jan 2008)

“quite small, limited light because of being overshadowed by McDonalds” (Feb 2007)

General Comments

“The room's pretty dark & there's no desk lamp provided, but bedder is lovely.” (Jan 2008)

“4 electrical sockets, not much sunlight, there is a carpet. It's a quite small room but I've fit at least 10 people in before just hanging out, and good for just crashing somewhere after doing stuff in town at night.” (Feb 2007)
