- Noise
“Sometimes noisy in the mornings (rubbish trucks) or late at night (drunken revellers), but genuinely nothing too bad. Unless you have lived all your life in a hamlet where one car passes a month, really nothing to worry about.” (Jan 2008)
“noisey at night as it overlooks trinity st. you get the noise of everyone coming in at 2am and then the rubbish trucks at 6am ish. oh yeah, and the friendly pigeons!!” (Jan 2005)
“noise from Trinity Street, and noise from neighbours simply because the doors are so thin, and there's a fire escape door leading to another room.” (Jan 2004)
“Can be a bit noisy in the evenings when people shout in the street, and early mornings when vehicles make deliveries, but fine unless you're a very light sleeper.” (Jan 2003)

“Kitchen is literally right next door. It's very small but only shared by three people. Has all the usual facilities.” (Jan 2008)
“v basic. 3 people sharing.small fridge.” (Jan 2005)

- Bath Room
“Bathroom is also right next door, again three people, fairly spacious. Has bath and showers.” (Jan 2008)
“1 sec dash to the bathroom which is good. 1 toilet and 2 showers only seperated by a shower curtain! may be ok for the boys but can be a little uncomfortable for girls.shower is v good though.” (Jan 2005)
“on my floor, next to kitchen. has toilet, bath, and two showers... problems with hot water supply sometimes: Tree court has had no hot water for several days before.” (Jan 2004)

“good furniture: shelf, bookcase, two chairs, desk, drawers, bedside table.” (Jan 2004)
“avertage sized desk with 3 draws, chest of draws, good bookshelf and shelves above bed, small table big enough for kettle etc. bedside cupboard.” (Jan 2003)
- Best Feature
“Fairly good views as it looks right onto St. Mary's church (the one just infront of college) and St. Mike's. There is a bricked up fireplace too if you like the traditional vibe, as well as a slide firescape through a hole in the wall, which I am waiting to test. The room was just repainted and is all shiny and new too. The bar is stumblng distance. Cosy.” (Jan 2008)
“its convenient” (Jan 2005)
“next to kitchen and bathroom, and big windows.” (Jan 2004)

“small, noisey and not very light.” (Jan 2005)
“gets very cold at night (radiator stops working, and cold air through the door cracks) noise from neighbours, tiny basin, bit dark given St Mikes blocks off all sunshine.” (Jan 2004)
“Pigeons constantly mating on the window sill.” (Jan 2003)
- General Comments
“Bedder is nice, if noisy. This would be an excellent room for a first year who wants to get into the Old Courts in his next year.” (Jan 2008)
“this is a really good choice for a 2nd year but i would not recommend it for a 3rd year. bedders are ok, although dont do much. new carper which is good.” (Jan 2005)
“A great bedder: may not do your hoovering very often, but is non-intrusive, and efficient. No hot water on a sporadic basis. Dark room.” (Jan 2004)
“Furniture old but fairly good condition. Bedders are friendly and unintrusive. Sunlight restricted by St Mikes Church directly over the road.” (Jan 2003)
