I personally could not share a bathroom.. I was contemplating it when I had my heart set of University of Essex and was looking at the extremely cheap tower block halls (oh, the extra money I could have had!), but thinking about it I don't think I would have liked it. Firstly I have stupid amounts of expensive hair and shower products I wouldn't want to leave lying around for people to nick, or otherwise lug back and forth between my room and the bathroom. Secondly I like to spend a long time chilling in the shower or on the bog and would probably get annoyed having people bang on the door wanting me to get out so they can go in. Thirdly if no one bothered to clean up after themselves it'd be gross, imagine going in to brush your teeth in the morning and coming face to face with a sink coated in sick from the night before, or trying to take a shower covered in hairs from who-knows-where. Yep, I'm glad the student court @ Wembley (Uni of Westminster), where I will now be staying, has en-suites anyway - no choice. I think had I gone for Essex I would definitely have ended up going for my own bathroom, to me the extra spendage would have been worth it.
