Bronze vs. Silver at a Glance

Is the Upgrade Worth It?

Depends on how much the extra space matters to your daily routine. In a studio, the kitchen, bed, and desk all share one room, so even 2 sqm can be noticeable. £510 a year is a real cost, worth weighing against what else it could cover. If space feels tight for you generally, the upgrade tends to be felt. If the room is mainly for sleeping, Bronze covers the same essentials for less.
