UNITE - North Lodge/Emily Bowes Court

Hi there,

I'm a Middlesex University student who is moving into UNITE North Lodge sometime this week. So, I was wondering are there any people on here who live in either North Lodge or Emily Bowes Court seeing as they are next door to each other? I haven't met anyone so far, so I'm hoping I meet a few people before I move in. :smile:

Not a lot of people in North Lodge come out to socialise, hope it changes. :smile:

So I just booked at Emily Bowes... and I'm feeling like I committed a mistake!

I'm coming to the UK on Monday and couldn't find a suitable accommodation... I thought this one will be OK based on my previous experience with UNITE during my undergraduate study. I did not bother searching for the name Tottenham before booking... It sounded familiar and I just couldn't tell why... after I made the booking I did a quick google search and got not really nice things in return! I'm starting to panic! tell me what you think... please...

Emily Bowes and North Lodge are exactly the same. For those that have moved into Emily Bowes are pretty much paying extra for NOTHING. The only difference between both flats are that Emily Bowes is twice the size, that's about it - everything else is identical. Also, North Lodge is a year old, whereas Emily Bowes is 4 years old. And yes, they are on the same street which is a 30 second walk from one another. So if I were you, I'd rebook into North Lodge ASAP before all the rooms go. I'm in Block B 1002, I think there's a room available in our flat.

​I suffered from EMILY BOWES COURT, they are so ridiculous, there are few points that I want to say:

1. toilet is broken weekly, the water drop is very loud at night, could not sleep
2. higher floor has none or poor heating service, the winter is impossible to live
3. internet is not stable, not fast , it is possible to play game. sometime it would disconnect while I was doing online test
4. there are mice in the room but no one come to solve the problem, although they said they would
5. poor security, everyone can follow you to come inside, sometimes drunk people will come know your door
6. your roommate steal things in kitchen or put salt on your food
7. there are glass on the top of the building, caused so many insects during the summer
8. common room has the worst cleaner, they spray cleaning sprays on you and annoying you every time you try to work
9. too far from anywhere, especially during strike

I really could not stand this area, and I highly recommend all of you NOT TO LIVE here!
