- Noise
“Right above the door, so it's not great if you want a lie-in. Can be some noise from the road, but nothing awful. On the other side of the house from the nursery, so you tend not to hear the children.” (Jan 2008)
“No. 9 is nice and quite. It's on the opposite side to the adjoining nursery, so you don't have to worry about the kids disturbing you. The nearby road is very quite.” (Feb 2007)
- Gyp Room
“Shared between five. Too narrow for more than one or two people to be cooking at once though.” (Jan 2008)
“The kitchen's a pretty good size by Caius standards. Particularly compared to what you get as a Fresher. Five people share it, with two fridges and one of the new microwave ovens. And it's been recently refurbished!” (Feb 2007)
- Bath Room
“Two toilets, one bath and one shower between five. Bathrooms are of a decent size but the shower is tiny.” (Jan 2008)
“There's one shower for the five of us on the floor, which is seperate to the two toilets we have. I've never had to wait for a shower, although there are no other lecture-going scientists to compete with.” (Feb 2007)
- Furniture
“Nothing very exciting. Couple of chairs, adequate desk, reasonable amount of wardrobe space.” (Jan 2008)
“I've got a desk, a small set of draws and a small wardrobe. Two chairs, one comfy. Probably not the best room for someone with lots of clothes.” (Feb 2007)
- Best Feature
“Cosy during the winter.” (Jan 2008)
“Quite pretty Victorian building. With big corridors and kitchens, the house has a very comfortable and sociable atmosphere. It's not all the way out in Morty Road! For 1st years yet to experience a Cambridge summer: Harvey Court gardens are fantastic...” (Feb 2007)
- Worst Feature
“Has mostly been referred to as 'The Cupboard" this year, as it is teeny compared to the other rooms in Springfield. Also, there's no bookcase which is a pain.” (Jan 2008)
“It's tiny in comparison to the other gargantuan Springfield rooms. I think it's cosy, but if you're after something spacious avoid No. 9.” (Feb 2007)
- General Comments
“Current bedder is a bit quiet but very nice. Only two plug sockets which, together with the netwrok socket, are in an awful place given where I wanted to put the desk. No thermostat on the radioator which is a annoying, especially as the heating is generally set quite high.” (Jan 2008)
“The room's carpeted. Electricity (2), network (2) and phone (1) sockets are all in the same place... but the rooms small anyway! Room is always hot, even with the heating off - I haven't figured out why yet. Friendly and conscientious bedder.” (Feb 2007)
