    The staff are so kind and helpful. Every friend who came to visit complimented it - I can't think of a better place to live in town.

    The flat seems to be newly built so the furnishes are new. The room size is comparably larger than the Uni accommodation. So personally, I am quite satisfied with my experiences there. Definitely recommended!
