I'm in Ustinov for a term, while trekking to Mary's for meals. :frown:

Anyone been there?

It's a brand new building (about 1 or 2 years old) and all fancy. Has an amazingly nice bar and good facilities - although bad luck on having to trek to Marys for food (though that is a less than 10min walk - not as bad as the Hatfield students who are having to walk from Mildert for their meals!), but lucky to be in Ustinov - it is really nice ! :smile:

Oh thats good then! Didn't realise Hatfield had the same problem.. &doubt many will make it to breakfast!
Just a pain as the walk to the department has now been doubled..
Thanks for that- that cheered me up :smile:

I stayed in Ustinov at my open day and the rooms seemed quite nice. The one I was in was ensuite and was a lot like the rooms in Butler, so you can look at the photos on the JB website if you're curious what they look like, although I'm sure they vary between buildings.

Hey guys,

I've just got my letter, apparently I'm in a single ( :smile:

) in W404...

I spoke to my mate who's already there and he has no idea where this room is :s-smilie:

Anyone know?

EDIT: btw the college is St Aidan's - kind of important I think!

Its in a house - as you go up the drive, to the left is the old houses (and then the extension) and to the right are some bungalowy type thing - its in one of them I think!
