Stupid Question on Halls

Definitely not a stupid question! Those are pretty valid points. I would personally ring up or email, to get an exact answer - they may even have an image of the room to show you. Don't be afraid to ask, there are plenty of other people in your position and plus you're paying a lot for accommodation, so you definitely have a right to know about these things. With a student room, from past experience, there are generally plenty of plug points situated around your bed and desk. Also I would recommend bringing your own kitchenware, obviously not in excess (one or two pans would generally do) but it definitely helps having your own stuff so you don't have to rely on others.

Not sure, you might've already seen this but they have a sort of checklist on their website:
https://www.southampton.ac.uk/studentservices/hotline-what-to-bring.page
which includes bedding, kitchen stuff, etc. I definitely get your point about not knowing specifically about the room tho, there's like one generic picture for each room type and no details.

Thannkyou... couldnt find that for toffee!
SO Interesting
The kitchen has NO pots/pans, cutlery/plates etc???

"In your kitchen, we provide:

Oven and hob
Fridge/freezer
Microwave
Table and chairs
Rubbish bin
Ironing Board
Hoover
Mop and bucket

"
Really... I think I need to call them!
Thankyou

Hall is literally a room and a kitchen with the absolute basics
I am here if you have any specific questions
All that is accurate
You're best emailing halls if you really want clarification but they will likely refer you to that checklist above

good things I suggest you bring to halls:
-ethernet cable
-1 extension lead for plugs
-hairdryer
-hangers
-desk lamp/reading lamp (the more portable the better) don't bring something chunky, might not be good if you have a more modern desk


things I recommend you wait until you get to halls to bring
-kettle
-toaster
-any sort of massive pans or cooking equipment

usually when you arrive everyone brings these and you end up with 4 x of each
plus there is an IKEA/ASDA/Sainsburys in southampton to buy cheap versions of these if needed

quote me if you have further questions
Cheese

:-) thanks for that... helped a lot... - I suppose I should expected nothing. - Its Ok... we'll get the stuff in advance. - Amazed by no kettle! but hey!
