UoB accommodation

I’m starting at UoB this September and i can’t decide between the metalworks or pritchatts house. Is pritchatts park or selly oak better? and if they’re still doing construction in pritchatts park will that be loud? I’m more familiar with selly oak, how far away are the shops from pritchatts park? thank you :smile:

Hello,

If you have any experience with the following student accommodations would please share your experience with me specially regarding safety? Actually, we found some threads in a student forum about crime incidents at Selly Oak. As an international student, it’s hard to shortlist my accommodation preferences without having visited the places in person. So, any feedback on these halls would be really helpful. If you have any suggestions about any halls outside of this list, please share that as well. Also, could you please give me an idea about how much time it takes to walk from The Vale to Poynting Building or Physics buildings?
