General Comments

“orange curtains are HORRIFIC! plenty of sockets. nice and warm even though there is a high ceiling. i definitely recommend to live here if you are low down in 3rd yr ballot / high up in 2nd yr.” (Jan 2006)

“bedder great, carpet ok, wardrobe not very deep, plenty of sockets about.” (Feb 2005)

“Room is warm and fairly light and the bedder is very good. Sharing the floor with two fellows means it's quite quiet and the gyp room and bathroom is almost always available. Probably a good choice for someone low down on the ballot.” (Jan 2003)
