Hi, I'm currently in my first term of first year undergrad at Lancaster, and I'm staying in an ensuite on campus this year, but I've found I really don't like sharing a kitchen, so I'm thinking of getting a studio in town next year.
I've been looking at either Hello Student's 99 Penny Street or St Leonard's House. St Leonards house is a little above my budget at £185 per week but I think I could make it work if it would be worth it. Has anyone stayed in the Standard Studio here? What's the rest of the building like and is it noisy with it being so central?
99 Penny Street's prices aren't up yet but I believe it may be a bit cheaper, if anyone can give me an idea of the prices and contract lengths over the last couple of years for the different studio options I would be grateful! Anyone who has stayed there: do the buses get crowded on the way to campus, is the location good (not too noisy, near enough to shops), and would you recommend it?
Are there any other places in town that do studios on a term time contract (40-44 weeks) for max £180 per week that you would recommend?
