Brodgate park question
is there a lift in the building?
is it the nearest to the university park?
how thin are the floors? is it easy to hear your neighbours stumbling around upstairs? (since it's run by upp ltd, whose properties tend to have this problem..)

Hello lorrybeep...
The first question is a little bit difficult to answer, which building areyoutalknig about? There is a lift in the reception block, that goes up to the bar, and I believe that Redwoods, which is one of the new blocks, has a lift.
It is the closest hall to campus.
The floors are fine, I was in an old block last year, and had no problems, and I have heard of no complaints from people in the new blocks.
Hope that helps, anything else, just ask away...

This completely depends on which block you're in! I know that Redwoods has a lift, for example, and probably some of the other studio flat blocks. As far as I know none of the standard, standard plus or ensuite shared kitchen blocks have lifts, though I may be wrong. If you need a lift or ground-floor flat for physical/medical reasons then you should put so on your form and you'll get priority for those flats.
Yes, Broadgate is the nearest self-catered residence to University Park, though it is on the west side of campus - so be aware that there might not be a huge time difference between Raleigh/SPC and Broadgate for getting to the QMC for example.
Again, the thinness of the floors depends on the block you're in - though in my ensuite block you can definitely hear if doors are opened/closed from the flat above and running, shouting etc, though not usually normal walking and talking. To be honest it's not a huge issue.

Hi! Thanks guys 
I'm interested in one of those large en-suit studio rooms. Which block are they located? (if broadgate park locate rooms to blocks based on their types).. and I hope theres a lift in the block i will be interested in..?
Is there any better accom you would recommend to a postgrad? I'd prefer somewhere near the uni park, safe of course and quiet..

Large studio rooms are in either Redwoods, Larches or Hemlocks, so maybe you'll be in one with a lift. If you have any special reason for needing a lift then you should put this on your application form. From what I hear those blocks aren't particularly noisy, and have a fair number of post-grads or second/third years.
