- Noise
“Very quiet during the night but noisy at times due to the nursery during the day. Not really a problem because I'm out working most days and the kids only get let out for a few hours each day.” (Jan 2008)
“Generally very quiet. Far from Harvey Court and so not much noise from bops; however there are quite a few musicians in the house so the occasional rehearsal occurs. Also next door to a nursery so children might be noisy between 9 am and 5 pm.” (Feb 2007)
- Gyp Room
“Decent sized kitchen shared between the 5 ground floor occupants. All the standard equipment with a washing machine and tumble dryer (currently broken) shared between the 10 occupants of the house.” (Jan 2008)
“Well sized gyp with two fridges, sink, toaster, kettle and a combi oven. Also contains house's washing machine and tumble dryer. Kitchen is shared between five on the ground floor.” (Feb 2007)
- Bath Room
“2 toilets and 1 shower downstairs for 5 people around the corner from the room. There's a bathtub upstairs thats not been used all year.” (Jan 2008)
“One shower/toilet and a seperate toilet, shared by five. There is a bath upstairs (used by those living above).” (Feb 2007)
- Furniture
“1 large desk, bookshelf, chest of drawers, wardrobe, comfy chair, incredibly uncomfortable chair, coffee table and brand new office chair.” (Jan 2008)
“Desk, bed, cupboard/drawers, bookshelf, three chairs (one comfortable), coffee table. Also a seperate shelf (but small and unlevel).” (Feb 2007)
- Best Feature
“Its the perfect size to not feel small but still feel comfortable and not too empty. Also, the location is great for both arts and science students (better for arts students) and the atmosphere of living with a small group of people is great.” (Jan 2008)
“Location (very convenient for Mill Lane or Sidgwick Avenue) and general peacefulness.” (Feb 2007)
- Worst Feature
“One window faces a wall and the other the nursery playground so not a great view. The room is not as big as some of the enormous ones in Springfield but the rent is lower. Also, not having a sink in the room is quite inconvenient to start with.” (Jan 2008)
“Terrible view, single glazing, nursery next door.” (Feb 2007)
- General Comments
“Very little sunlight as the 2 small windows face west so you need to keep the light on when in. Also, location of other second years means that Springfield can feel a bit isolated.” (Jan 2008)
“The room has two small windows facing west, one overlooking a fine patch of gravel and the other the nursery playground. Wardrobe is quite small and there is only a moderate amount of storage suitable for delicates. The heating is fine but there is only one outlet (two sockets) near the desk.” (Feb 2007)
