It'll do haha, thats all i can really say, bring a memory foam matress topper unless you want bruised hips like i ended up having! but honestly, its not that bad, the rooms are small but cosy enough and the kitchen has plenty of space and whatnot :smile: any specific questions?
I got 1st floor room 115.
I'm from London studying psychology
Norton wasn't my first choice but it doesn't seem that bad to me

its not that bad haha my hometown is rougher, it doesnt have that 'buzz' because that only really exists on the campuses hahah, its on the outskirts of notts so you will be around more of a residential area, but theres a Aldi literally behind the halls, a cinema 10 minutes away and a gym around the corner, theres a bus around the corner if you really dont like walking to uni too (taxis are £3 to the SU if you absolutely refuse to leave your doorstep) :smile: anything else? :smile:

I had to get this accommodation because I booked it at like 6 and it was the only one left with an en suite and bun sharing a bathroom (3rd floor I think room 402). I was so annoyed cause I really wanted to be on campus. I don't understand why everything went so quick, people are crazy doing it at midnight! I hope that its still a good experience though and some 'buz' also???

That's good I just thought u might miss out on stuff cos not being on campus, are you in your second year? I think the distance is also rlly annoying like that long walk in the rain would be awful.
