- Noise
“The living room is moderately noisy most of the time, but in an interesting "watching people in the market" way. Though the never ending church bells on Sundays are annoying. Bedroom is amazingly quiet, you only occasionally hear people getting back but most of the time it is really peaceful.” (Jan 2007)
“No noise that I've noticed.” (Jan 2006)
“Not too bad, some street noise in living room, from market square obviously. But usually its more entertaining than irritating to be fair.” (Feb 2005)
- Gyp Room
“It's not so bad sizewise, at the end of the corridor, shared with three more people.” (Jan 2007)
“Just at end of corridor (a few steps away), 4 sharing, quite big but not much in it.” (Jan 2006)
“Not great. 4 people sharing, and its not far from my room. Two hobs, fridge and thats about it. Not really enough storage space.” (Feb 2005)
- Bath Room
“Big bathroom (with a nice powerful shower, sink, loo with handy shelf for magazines) next door to a toilet in a standard Caius-bog yellow broom cupboard with a toilet squeezed in. Again, shared with the other three rooms on the floor, and at the end of the corridor (within stumbling distance the morning after).” (Jan 2007)
“4 people sharing it, also at end of corridor, One shower.” (Jan 2006)
“One toilet, and one bathroom containing a shower, sink and toilet. Shower pretty good, although has tendency to get blocket occasionally. Toilets - couldnt ask for more in a lavatory.” (Feb 2005)
- Furniture
“Living room: One standard desk, one big unfolding desk (apparently a dining table...), a wheely spinning around chair, a "comfortable" chair and a dining style chair. Also two nice big book/beer cases, and a huge wardrobe in the corner. One lamp. And a window seat. In the bedroom: Caius standard issue squeaky uncomfortable bed. Another big cupboard. A monstrous chest of draws type thing. A sink.” (Jan 2007)
“Large desk, dining table, small coffee table thing, two book shelves, and 2 chairs plus desk chair. Bedroom: bed, bedside table, large chest of drawers and wardrobe.” (Jan 2006)
“Living room - Large desk, large extendable table, which I handily put next to each other to create a 'super table'. Two 'comfy' chairs and one desk swivel chair. Book cases and a hybrid bookshelf-cum-cupboard creation. One built in cupboard as well, which is huge, and good for storing stuff during the vacation. Bedroom - bed, wardrobe, and Chest of drawers thing. No full-length mirror (Doesn't bother me, but I'm told that girls often care about these things). Oh, and a bedside table.” (Feb 2005)
- Best Feature
“Huge amount of storage space for the vacations and random crap. And the location is almost perfect - people watching during the day, a peaceful place to sleep.” (Jan 2007)
“Nice view over market, large size, very warm.” (Jan 2006)
“Size is pretty good, ground floor also good. And an interesting view, i suppose.” (Feb 2005)
- Worst Feature
“No plugs! There are two in each room, so bring extension leads. The sun gets in your eyes during winter morning too if you face your desk towards the window.” (Jan 2007)
“Being split over a corridor means I lock myself out regularly.” (Jan 2006)
“I suppose being split on opposite sides of the coridoor could be a bad thing, although if you're sharing a coridoor with friends it doesnt matter too much as you can just leave your doors open all the time. The bed isn't overly comfortable.” (Feb 2005)
- General Comments
“Bedders are v. nice. Living room v.sunny (but means can get too hot on a sunny day). Nice neutral decor.” (Jan 2006)
“Sunlight - yes; bedder - nice; carpet - wondrous; decor - neutral; wardrobe space - fine; heating - gas fire, generally enough; sockets - not enough! very annoying, so buy some extension leads (there are only two sockets in the living room, and I usually have at least 5 or 6 things that need plugging in.” (Feb 2005)
