Brighton uni or Oxford Brookes?

I feel really stupid asking this, as it is fully my decision, and also because (I'm assuming) they are two very different unis.
I will be going to open days for both unis, but for now I really want to get some more opinions. So does anyone have a strong opinion (good/bad) on either uni? It would really help me out as, for now, I'm completely on the fence.

Which subject is it for?

Out of the two I'd say Oxford Brookes has the better and stronger reputation but it depends on the subject.

Brighton apparently is good for Sport Science whereas Oxford Brookes has other strengths such as architecture.

Both unis are good.

Brighton - seaside so you'll be healthier there (more fresh air) ((havent been to the uni< but friends did and seemed to like it (open days))

Im a 3rd going into 4th year at Brookes.

Brookes the campus's are spread out so theres not too much squashed in on site, theres a uni bus service going between the campus's and Oxford city. (anyone in halls gets a free buspass)

Depending on where your course is based you could be in the countryside (business school), just out of town (headington hill / gipsy lane (main campus), almost in countryside (teaching - harcourt hill)

All the libraries got everything you need, so you only buy text books when told to, and they will even move books to another library if you find that easier.

Any other Brookes questions just ask.

To whoever gave this negative feedback - please explain why.:

How good is Oxford Brookes for Biomedical Science, and what are the lab facilities and lectures like?
