Noise

“Very quiet room as faces onto Tree Court.” (Jan 2008)

“Very quiet. Only occasional noise when the drunks are thrown out of the college bar” (Jan 2006)

“Not noisy at all.” (Jan 2005)

“Very very quiet - hardly anyone lives on the staircase, and it overlooks Tree Court.” (Jan 2003)

Gyp Room

“Perfectly adequate- sharing one very small gyp room with another student and two fellows (who never use it!)” (Jan 2008)

“miniscule - shared with 2 compsci fellows who won't talk to you at all, ever, but will let you make coffee with their machine whenever you want to. You better get on with ur neighbour in P14 though” (Jan 2006)

“A bit basic like everywhere else in the old courts. Sharing with one other plus a couple of fellows.” (Jan 2005)

“Only two of us share a tiny kitchen, but this is quite good for Tree Court.” (Jan 2003)

Bath Room

“Shower and bath and two toilets between three students” (Jan 2008)

“toilet on same floor, permananty freezing, and a lightswitch which breaks every health and safety rule in the book. Shower on floor below, shared between 3 (and occasionally one of the compsci fellows......*shiver*)” (Jan 2006)

“Ditto.” (Jan 2005)

“Nice shower, but sometimes there is no hot water. Only 3 of us on the staircase.” (Jan 2003)

Furniture

“Good solid desk. Rather dubious arm chair. Lots of space for clothes.” (Jan 2008)

“large desk, lumpy bed, 2 chairs, small chest of drawers and a fitted wardrobe (small). Small window which lets in very little light” (Jan 2006)

“Standard fare.” (Jan 2005)

“Not bad, although a drinks cabinet would have been handy.” (Jan 2003)

Best Feature

“The view over Tree Court” (Jan 2008)

“Lovely and quiet, large enough to entertain a few people, and to spread yourself a bit without it feeling empty if you don't have a lot of stuff, good views looking across tree court to the UL.” (Jan 2006)

“View.” (Jan 2005)

“Quiet (I know it sounds really sad) and nice sunsets (ahhhhh!)” (Jan 2003)

Worst Feature

“It is at the top of the staircase so it is rather an effort to move in and out” (Jan 2008)

“no matter how many lights you put on in here it always feels a bit dark. But is not a real big issue” (Jan 2006)

“None in particular - a bit drafty perhaps.” (Jan 2005)

“All those bloody stairs” (Jan 2003)

General Comments

“Very friendly bedder.” (Jan 2008)

“one entire wall made of some sort of fabric which you can pin notes into with drawing pins wherever you want - great for revision notes, pictures, etc. Heating is good, windows draughty. Bedder very friendly, very competent. I got this room at 2nd from bottom in the ballot last year, and am really really happy with it” (Jan 2006)

“Not a bad room - you could do a lot worse if you find yourself at the bottom of the ballot.” (Jan 2005)

“Generally a really nice room and good place to live, although isn't the biggest room in Tree Court.” (Jan 2003)
