What is the quality of the items Brunel provides in Halls?
The quilts for example, are they warm enough, or are they the very thin, very cheap type that never seems to give you any warmth unless you put 2 blankets on top?

Well obviously can't tell for the new halls. But my halls were often too warm and i rarely used the heater. Even in the winter. But if your on the bottom floor its probably going to be a bit colder than if you were higher up.

No, I'm a girl, girls don't get ground floor.
I just wondered whether I should bother buying one or if the one they provide is good enough. I like fluffy, warm quilts!

No , you do not need any extra blanket ,,,, London is the warmest place in uk ,,, I rarely use the heater ,,, Maybe Í like 2 use sometimes 4 fun loool ,, I mean that you will not freeze 2 death if u didnt use it !! Close the windows and the room will be warm.

I remeber i got really cold once or twice ,,, 2 Sum up >> blankets are thick enough ><

Wow, I'm glad that they've finally updated something in their site. By the way, no bedroom pics are posted :mad:

Bedroom and bathroom are what I'm so concerned now.

BREAKING NEWS !!!!!!!!

There is a video uploaded on brunel accomm site !! It is not working with me !

It worked fine for me -just finished watching it! Thanks for the info.

It doesn't say much though, It has some bathroom footage but doesn't say from where, so it could be either Bishop or Ismabard, but I think that Isambards bathrooms -if it wasn't them that the video showed- won't be any different.

Other than that it advertises the accomodation office, the security etc...

Some footage of the beds worried me a bit though... They look like the beds they have in the army! The ones with the iron legs you can fold... Are these things comfortable and strong enough???

Sorry, don't know much of the pc technical part.... I don't think you can download it. Try from another pc?

But I'm telling you it's not worth the fuss... Nothing you haven't seen already
