Leodis Residences

All in all its pretty good accommodation. The main issue is that it's up hill going to uni, like really up hill, which is such a pain. The walls are quite thin so pray for good flatmates and block mates. Maintenance are kinda rubbish in following up complaints but if you shout at them or better still get a parent to do it it'll get sorted ASAP. Best part is having an ensuit.

Nice enough accommodation, dead close to uni which is amazing, reception staff always dead helpful. Never too loud but never too quiet either, the best all rounder in my opinion

Yeah good good time. Good people. Good food, oh wait it was self catered. Am I at 100 characters yet? Banging rooms, not too squeaky if you know what I mean.

Excellent location, all facilities you could need. Very nice kitchen and rooms. Showers in the en suites are big and have nice water pressure. Overall a great accommodation

Quite close to uni although it is an uphill walk. Close to a londis and a one stop and not too far from the city centre. The rooms are a good size with nice ensuites. The flat kitchen sizes vary from being very large to quite cramped for 6 people. Sofas were not very comfortable and did not fit 6 people. Plenty of parking if you are bringing a car to uni or having visitors. There is a secure gate and fob access to every block. Not that many social activities planned by the residences but still a good place to be. Checkout at the end of the tenancy was also very simple and easy with a swift deposit return.

Close to uni and to the town centre there was no denying Leodis is in a great location for all freshers, despite the mountain of a hill you had to climb to get to uni every morning it was a quick walk (climb) to everything, which also meant you were pretty much guaranteed a same day appointment at the medical practice. For £125 a week you had a double bedroom with your own en suite shower room, and all bills included and maintenance guys ready to arrive on the day if you ever broke something. The rooms themselves were pretty decent in size and the showers were great as long as you timed it with the other guys in the flat so that it wasn’t freezing when you get in yours. The only things that would have been nice to have would have been washing machines (circuit laundry drains your student loan faster than their drying sequence takes to finish). Having about 12 washing machines between the whole of Leodis wasn’t exactly well thought through, and having to drag your washing across the car park wasn’t my favourite experience from living there. Sort it out. The social aspect of Leodis was great, especially if your lift was broken for 4 months and you had to walk from floor 6 down just to get out of the building. Although the flats in most blocks weren’t big enough for hosting a massive pres the ones closer to the main road were perfect and also not as frequently checked by security after 11 when the noise was supposed to be lowered (unless some dickhead put in a complaint). Despite this we managed to have a relatively big welcome drinks in freshers week so we could get to know the people in our block and we still talk to the guys we met now and some are our closest friends. The common room at leodis is big but I think I only ever went in there 3/4 times in my year there. One wasn’t out of choice it was for a meeting for a noise complaint against our flat. The others were for social events Leodis had put on, there was a summer hog roast where we got inflatables and weird carnival things for the afternoon and that was free for us. Overall Leodis wasn’t OMG amazing but it was pretty good, and I’m glad I chose it as Home for my first year at uni.

Fairly modern, close to uni. Not the most social of halls but a lot more than some others. Site staff take ages to get back to you on complaints. Seen a rat right by the block. Also been a few muggings in the area.

great location, close to both uni and town, very social people, good quality commodities, nice room with a lot of space and same with the common areas

The location was ideal, a ten minute walk to university up a steep hill. Ensuite bathroom, and all the facilities in the kitchen provided with a plasma screen television. Two sofas, not that comfortable. The social experience was amazing, I met my best friends through halls. Everyone was very friendly, very social. My room was imaculate, very modern.
