mmu...daisy bank?

I stayed at DB last year, social life a lil crap..the one social event the halls organised was cancelled. I don't know if its the same for other halls but you have to sit through a three hour fire seminar in your first week that seriously cuts into your evening...starts around 7pm if you don't go you have to pay a fine and then still go to another one. I know it's safety but THREE HOURS AT THAT TIME?!

The rooms are nice, if your in a corner flat you could end up with a tiny room (i did) an average standard room or the absolutely massive room(with a huge bathroom)! Other flats all have standard rooms with standard bathrooms (can't rlly fit a bath mat in) You get loadsa storage, 2 massive under bed draws, chest of draws under your desk, bedside cabinet, wall shelves above your desk and a split wardrobe with shelving and hanging space. Beds are quite comfy too, curtains make you think its middle of the night even in the middle of the day...industrial strength lol.

The communal rooms are quite big, with a TV socket, full size fridge and freezer, but a rather manky cooker that you will NEVER get clean no matter how hard you try! And beware of the white goods have a habit of exploding....

The outside is rlly nice in the summer, lotsa grass, picnic benches, bbq's and a football/basketball court.

Security very tight, Have to go through 4 doors to get to your flat, and another one to your room, can be a pain when your moving in! But still very safe. Security guards stay next to the front gate 24/7. It's all swipecard and anti-copy key entry. (Costs a lot to replace if you lose them)

Flats are arrange either 4x males, 4x females, 2x male + 2x female, OR 3x female 1x male. You will NEVER have a 3x male 1x female flat. I was in a 3 female 1 male.

Daisy bank is around 35 mins walk away from Hollings campus, or about 10 mins walk to oxford road and a 5 min busride if your lazy. Its a 5 mins walk from Varsity bar which is cheap as long as you have your v-card. This is under Wilmslow park halls. Also under there is 2 shops including tesco, a blockbusters, a coffee shop, subways and a post office. There is another tesco petrol station just up dickinson road.

It is about 50 mins walk from the main campuses, or a busride again. Central halls are better for the all-saints campuses.

Hope that helps if you have any q's drop us a line
