Endcliffe Curbar flats Sheffield?

I have reserved a flat in curbar, but am not sure if the experience will be as good as some of the others. I enjoy going out and I'm always up for going out, however I like my own space and especially around exams I need that space. I have autism, which doesn't affect me as much as it would others, but sometimes things get too much and I do just need time alone. And curbar was the only flats available when i booked for 6 people the rest were for 8 and 10.
Is curbar a good place to stay if you want a mix between the social aspect but also when I need to do work etc there's less going on compared to howden or derwent.
If anyone knows what the wall colours for block A is as well that would be helpful :smile:

I’m applying this year too and got a flat in Curbar as well. I have the same issue as you, autistic and do need my own space sometimes but from the people I’ve spoken to you should have the opportunity to take some time alone :smile:

hey, I'm supposed to be in A4 this year. What colour are the walls? Also, are you in same sex, as I am and don't know how to feel about it, there was not much left to choose from. What was your experience like in Curbar?

I applied for accommodation a couple of weeks ago and I haven't heard anything back yet. I know I applied quite late but how long did it take for you guys?
