edinburgh or bristol 2024?

which uni do people think is better for classics? and which city is better to live in generally? currently trying to decide which offer to accept. i liked both at open days and they rank quite similarly, so just wondering if anyone has experience of the classics course at either uni?? also how are the cities are to live in?? is it easy to find a job??? and how is accommodation both in first year and in 2nd/3rd/4th year? for added context, i did latin gcse but ended up not doing it at a level, so i assume i would be in beginners latin and greek. does anyone have any experience of this situation at bristol or edinburgh, and how is the pace of language learning? finally how well does each uni prepare you for careers, especially in a degree like classics. any general experience related to any of the previous questions would help greatly, thank you!
