Overlooking a street.
- Noise
“The hall deliveries for Caius and Trinity are directly below so for the first week you find you get woken up at daft times like 7:30, even at the weekend. You soon get used to it though. Its a great room, the best ive had.” (Feb 2006)
“Some early morning noise from deliveries to the back of trinity and occasionally the squires can be heared belting out various tunes when they are having a good outing in hall.” (Jan 2005)
“Reasonably noisey deliverery vans going into trinity college side entrance at about 7:30am. Windows are thin so you can here people talking as they walk under the window on the street outside. Gets a bit noisey around hall time when people queue dinner.” (Jan 2003)
- Gyp Room
“There is one gyp room for 6 people with the ubiquitous two hot plates. It is a better than average Caius gyp room and has the bonus of being quite new.” (Feb 2006)
“1 between about 6 rooms. Very modern and newly decorated, far better than any other old court staircase or st mikes. About three rooms down the corridoor.” (Jan 2005)
“Excellent. Modern. Clean. Lots of cupboards, descent sized fridge. 2 hobs. No oven ect.” (Jan 2003)
- Bath Room
“There are two showers which are usually cold except early in the morning. There are also two good showers upstairs which are always hot. I have never had to queue though. There are two toilets” (Feb 2006)
“Seperate toilets opposite kitchin. 2 power showers at the end of the corridoor.” (Jan 2005)
“Two toilets opposite the kitchen. Not very sound proof and poeple can here you if the outer door is not closed. 2 showers both good though they are very small (definately one person only) and tend to leak. No baths. Wash basins by the toilets.” (Jan 2003)
- Furniture
“There is a really large desk across the whole of one wall. There is enough room for pretty much anything you want to put on the it. (e.g. I have two monitors, a computer, lots of books and folders etc). There are three chairs, a cupboard with sink and lots of drawers (The same as all rooms on F staricase).” (Feb 2006)
“Large desk along one whole wall. Pretty new matching ikea style furniture. Lots of storage space.” (Jan 2005)
“Three chairs, bookshelf, coffee table, chest of drawers, bedside table. 1 wardrobe (small) with drawers underneath. Sink in what appears to be a second wardrobe with a large mirror. Hidden shelving behind mirror. Lockable space above the wardrobe. Long, thin desk that lines the end of the room. No desk drawers.” (Jan 2003)
- Best Feature
“The best feature is the ability to cut the hall queue from the bottom of the staircase. It is also a short stagger to the bar.” (Feb 2006)
“Double aspect windows. New and modern. Has a second door between it and the main corridoor. Right near the bar (always a goody)” (Jan 2005)
“Excellent (possible the best of any rooms on offer) facilities. Hall (the balcopny entrance is literally just outside the room), bar, jcr and all other things of the like are very close and there is no need to go outside for any.” (Jan 2003)
- Worst Feature
“None.” (Feb 2006)
“Very occasionally it is annoying trying to the room because you have to go up the main hall staircase.(But provides a perfect way of cutting the hall queue)” (Jan 2005)
“Getting back to your room at hall time is anoying as staircase entrance is halfway up the hall stairs and pushing through people often takes time and skill.” (Jan 2003)
- General Comments
“The whole corridor was redecorated a few years ago so everything is new.” (Feb 2006)
“V efficient bedder who keeps herself to herself. Ideal if you are a very social person around college.” (Jan 2005)
“Two large windows makes it very light during the day, although heat retention is poor. Main room light is very dull so extra lamps will be required to keep room light when it is dark outside. These rooms usually are some of the last to be chosen but alot of people way prefer this room to their more popular St. Mikes room.” (Jan 2003)
