- Noise
“Very quiet. One of the rooms underneath has a piano which can clearly be heard. This isn't a problem as I asked the musician not to play before or after certain times which he has done. During the day it is quite nice to have concert grade music being proformed within earshot.” (Jan 2008)
“Hardly any noise.” (Feb 2007)
- Gyp Room
“Quite small but we can all get in at the same time. It's on the same floor as my room and takes about five seconds to get to.” (Jan 2008)
“Good gyp room, share with 4 other people, recently refurbished.” (Feb 2007)
- Bath Room
“Shared between the five people on the top floor are, one room containing just a toilet, a room containing a shower and wash basin, a room containing a toilet, bath and wash basin.” (Jan 2008)
“Springfield has four toilets, two showers and a bath between ten people. One of the bathrooms is particularly long, and ideal if you like to improve your accuracy from a distance.” (Feb 2007)
- Furniture
“Two built in wardrobes, a dinning table that expands, moderatly sized desk with chair, a chest of draws, three armchairs and two small tables in the larger room. In the small room there is a bookshelf and a cupboard.” (Jan 2008)
“A dining table, two small tables, another strange little table, a desk, a bookshelf, a bed, two chests of drawers, two wardrobes and three comfy chairs. People will try to steal your furniture.” (Feb 2007)
- Best Feature
“The size, which makes it great for parties, and the view out over Springfield gardens to Queens (very occasionally you might see a dear). Springfield itself, despite having clearly taken a few knocks over the years is a beautiful house and no further from town than Harvey Court.” (Jan 2008)
“It's big and peaceful, like an Elephant.” (Feb 2007)
- Worst Feature
“The smaller room is essentially only good for storage as it is only separated from the bathroom by a sealed door. I estimate that the small room adds about one hundered pounds a term to my rent which is quite a lot for a room I only real used when I needed somewhere to hand washing.Also Springfield would probably feel a little isolated if you weren't surounded by friends.” (Jan 2008)
“It's so big it can feel naked.” (Feb 2007)
- General Comments
“Not that many sockets so you will need extention leeds and unless you want to put the desk or dining table in the very small second room then you will need to buy a 10m internet cable. The central heating system in all the Springfield rooms is very powerful. The floor however is very thin so a loud radio alarm may disturb someone below you as can pacing around at night. The nursery isn't a problem on this rooms side of the house but you might need to occasionally persude nursery staff to stop parents parking child carriers in your bike rack. All things considered I have no regrets about chooseing the room I did and am gretly enjoying living in it.” (Jan 2008)
