Byron Residence

The location was amazing and it was a very lively accommodation with lots of people there. However there was no communal area to meet up with other blocks and the kitchen area wasn't very nice to spend time in as there was no sofa and only hard benches to sit on.

Location was very good. Facilities were good, sometimes the laundry room was v busy though, so maybe more machines are needed. The staff were friendly and helpful but would tell you to turn music down at like half 9, nowhere near exam season. Social experience was ok, but each flat is separated and there was no common room. The only shared space was the courtyards but people wouldn't go there to socialise as there was nowhere to sit and often very cold. If I went in halls again I would go to Sandby because i would like the social experience of living with 24 people in a flat and being able to go and knock on any friends door. Also it's way overpriced.

Lovely halls and very social. However with ongoing re cladding in buildings very noisy early in the morning and at night. Also there is 8 washing machines between over 400 students
