- Noise
“Both rooms very noisy, as single glazed. Living room overlooks Trinity St so hear big issue seller shouting all day while you work. Bedroom overlooks Rose crescent, so late night noise.” (Feb 2008)
“Noisy at night with people queuing for Gardies. Easily solved with ear plugs. General hub-bub during the day.” (Jan 2005)
“Overlooks both trinity street (living room) and rose crescent (bedroom) so a hum of noise during the day and early evening from these. Reasonably noisey from about 12am-3am as people get food from Gardies (but with Gardies closing down in December that will only be a tempory problem for you). Very noisey for about 20 minutes on a Saturday afternoon as the animal rights protestors march down Trinity street.” (Jan 2004)
- Gyp Room
“The room has it's own kitchen- tiny but with microwave oven, toaster, kettle george foreman (no fridge), cupboard and table. But there is a gyp room (needed for fridge) just opposite as well shared by 2 other people.” (Feb 2008)
“Small gyp room, 3 people sharing. Lots of shelf space, large sink but no proper draining board. Very old style gas cooker, but works surprisingly well.” (Jan 2005)
“Have my own gyp room off my living room (1m by 2m) and that has a single hob, small cupboard and a small table as well as a window onto trinity street. Main gyp room has two sinks, two hobs, a fridge and some communal cupboards. As good as anything else college provideds in terms of kitchens. Shared between 3 people.” (Jan 2004)
- Bath Room
“Great big bathroom. But it is in basement so 4 floors down for shower or toilet!!” (Feb 2008)
“Separate boys and girls showers, between 7 people. Girls' shower is nice and powerful. Think boys' are less so. Only problem is they're down four flights of stairs. But sink in room makes it less painful.” (Jan 2005)
“Bathroom facilities are good and split into boys and girls facilities. Each has two toilets, two showers and three sinks. Major disadvantage is that they are located in the bacement (4 floors below me) so a bit of a trek.” (Jan 2004)
- Furniture
“Normal desk, 2 armchairs, cupboard, chest of drawers - the usual” (Feb 2008)
“LIVING ROOM: Large desk, two bookcases (as one is tiny), swivel chair, two more comfy chairs, coffee table. I also have an old metal kitchen table, which is in the small kitchen area in room (1m x 2m). BED ROOM: Bed, chest of drawers, wardrobe, small table.” (Jan 2005)
“Bedroom: bedside table, large set of drawers, small/adequate wardrobe, sink Living Room: decent sized desk with 7 drawers, very small book shelves, small table, two seater sofa, fire place with heater” (Jan 2004)
- Best Feature
“Its own kitchen and the hallway with bedroom and main room off it is cool cos it feels like a flat.” (Feb 2008)
“Nice size, lovely old features (eg Caius fireplace, windows) Has a small entrance way, with storage for coats, shoes etc.” (Jan 2005)
“sofa, size, good storage, space for your own fridge/microwave/kettle etc” (Jan 2004)
- Worst Feature
“NOISE” (Feb 2008)
“Can get a bit draughty on windy days as there's no double glazing.” (Jan 2005)
“toilets 4 floor below (8 flights of stairs), noise” (Jan 2004)
- General Comments
“quite cold in main room” (Feb 2008)
“Not all that sunny as north facing, can be a bit dark, you'll probably need another lamp. Carpet in bedroom could do with being replaced (or covered with a rug as I've done). Wardrobe was tiny, but got that changed as you couldn't close the doors! Heating in living room is a bit temperamental. Lots of sockets (good thing).” (Jan 2005)
“Quite dark, bedder doesn't do much though has advantage that she doesn't talk to you, paint is pealing off a bit, carpets are a horrible brown, heating is good, plenty of power sockets” (Jan 2004)
