    I am thinking about it, but it is a bit expensive. What course are you on?

    Aw wow that sounds great! Well for my interview I stayed in the travel lodge right next door and it looked lovely but a girl who is on my course went and looked around and said how lovely it was , very modern and as it was only built last year very clean ect. So because I wasn't keen on staying on campus (you have to have catering cards at marjon) plus i 23 I managed to reserve a room in the flat next to hers

    Hey, sounds great and must be dead exciting preparing for heading down to Plymouth. I went to Plymouth Uni some years ago but stayed in halls on Campus. There werent really the private halls back then so I'd love to see what these look like.

    Has anyone got pics or links to these halls I could see to satisfy my curiosity?

    I hope you have a fantastic time down there and the halls are everything you hope.

    Found central park towers - It is closer to the city centre and I believe there is a free bus over anyway.
