Could swing something between a sheep and a cow (~1.9 HC).
Overlooking a court or garden.
- Noise
“Only really noisy on sundays, with the bells, but even that's not too opresive and it's kind of unavoidable being in town.” (Jan 2008)
“Noise from church bells, but none from the street, save when there are Gardies protests” (Jan 2004)
- Gyp Room
“OK and very close to the room, except that the fridge is ridiculously small given the amount of people who share it. Have asked college to sort it out but no luck so far.” (Jan 2008)
“The gyp room is a fairly good size, but has to serve about a dozen people, so there is little space. It's about 10m from the room.” (Jan 2004)
- Bath Room
“Shower right by the room, practically en suite- it's ok, nothing special- the bath is really far away and in a very dark and dingy room up yet another flight of stairs! Small toilet a bit further down the hall.” (Jan 2008)
“There is a rather squalid shower and a room with a sink in it. Again these serve a dozen people, but there is also a shower downstairs, and there are rarely queues.” (Jan 2004)
- Furniture
“This is a high point- fantastic sofa and armchair. If anything the amount of furniture is a bit excessive! Desk is quite small, which is a bit annoying.” (Jan 2008)
“The desk is small, as is the the cupboard. There is an aging sofa and an armchair, though the acquisiton of them both by my predecessor was somewhat dubious, so they may be removed. There is a rather battered, but quite large fridge.” (Jan 2004)
- Best Feature
“Sofa and Armchairs, quite a big window (but zero view from it!). It's big and quiet and with the furniture you can make it look really nice and comfortable. Loads of cupboards for storage. Great being in town.” (Jan 2008)
“For a room at the bottom of the ballot it is fairly large and the sofa and fridge are nice.” (Jan 2004)
- Worst Feature
“Up a lot of stairs, a bit cut off, could have a nicer bathrom near it, lack of a bath nearby has annoyed me, lack of a decent sized fridge is infuriating!” (Jan 2008)
“The communal faciltiies are horrible, the room has not been painted in many years, and almost every inch of wall has some blemish that needs to be covered up.” (Jan 2004)
- General Comments
“Bedder is nice. Room is light enough but not amazingly so. ecor is ok, furniture a little chabby but plentiful. Sloping roof. Enough sockets but internat socket is in an annoying place- bring a 10m cable.” (Jan 2008)
“There is a sunlight which is very annoying when hungover in th morning. The carpet is dirty and there is a large burn from a saucepan. One of the walls is sloping, which decreases the space. There is no central heating in K St Marys. There is only one socket in the room, which limits posssible furniture arrangements. Not a great room in general but, given I was last on the ballot, it could be much worse.” (Jan 2004)
