- Noise
“bedroom overlooks rose crescent so do get a bit of post club noise from Gardies. Double glazing keeps most of this out so not a huge problem except for occasional drunken shouting.” (Feb 2005)
“bedroom is really noisy from about midnight to 2.30, because of drunken crowds at gardies. sleep can be difficult. next year i guess you don't need to worry about that. but then the college could have just fitted double glazing...” (Jan 2004)
“Noise in bedroom at night from gardis quite loud.” (Jan 2003)
- Gyp Room
“have my own little gyp room with a sink and gas hob. Not really much room or potential for cooking a proper meal. Fridge is down one set of stairs.” (Feb 2005)
“a tiny little kitchen is part of the set. it has no room for anything, one socket, and the scariest gas cooking ring ive ever seen.” (Jan 2004)
“Own kitchen. Terrible 1 bunsen burner type thing.” (Jan 2003)
- Bath Room
“Showers and toilets are in the basement, quite a distance from the top floor, which can be a little irritating. Apart from this there are plenty of showers to share and there's a laundry down there as well.” (Feb 2005)
“bathrooms etc are in the basement. 4 floors down. a bit annoying, but you'll get really fit going up and down the stairs. and the room has 2 sinks...” (Jan 2004)
“Miles away. Bathroom is in basement 5 flights down.” (Jan 2003)
- Furniture
“Small desk, little coffee table, 2 comfy chairs, gas fire, nice antique chest.” (Feb 2005)
“the highlight is a really nice dresser type thing. the rest of it is fine. the cupboard in the bedroom has its very own built-in black hole, where resides junk from god knows how long ago. and you can't get it out. the gas fire is rather frightening and tends to fall apart.” (Jan 2004)
“Desk chairs plently of cupboards.” (Jan 2003)
- Best Feature
“View from living room looks out over caius, the church and kings chapel. Very nice. Small but potentially cosy.” (Feb 2005)
“The view is wonderful, cos the room is on the corner so the window perfectly frames king's chapel, great st. mary's etc. this is a better view than any i've seen from a caius room, the winter sunsets are amazing. the rooms are eccentrically shaped and angled which adds zany charm.” (Jan 2004)
“View of st mikes” (Jan 2003)
- Worst Feature
“Needs redecorating badly, long stroll to the toilet in the middle of the night, very narrow bedroom dominated by the wardrobe.” (Feb 2005)
“The fire is quite worrying, and the room always seems to smell of gas. The noise at night can prevent sleep if you go to bed before 2.30. it can be quite cold.” (Jan 2004)
“Bathroom and kitchen” (Jan 2003)
- General Comments
“Living room gets the sun to go with the nice view, plenty of wardrobe space, gas fire and radiator in bedroom, peaceful.” (Feb 2005)
“the carpet in the living room is horrible. and the paint on the walls has clearly seen a lot of blu-tac. the distance to the bathroom is annoying. however this is a great room, with lots of character, and the view alone, the best in st. mikes, makes it worth living here” (Jan 2004)
