Dagfa house or Broadgate Park?

Which accommodation would you prefer? Has anyone had an experience with either? I'm mainly focused on whether the interior is nice and the kitchens have enough space for students. I've heard that in dagfa the rooms are quite small and you have to share with 12 other people? Also i've heard that dagfa is a really warm accommodation which I hate (I love being cold). I'm also concerned that if I pick Broadgate park I'll get assigned a lower court room.

I stayed in Dagfa last year the rooms are quite big actually and by warm I mean u can turn the radiator off in ur room and open the window? I found the kitchen situation quite hard as if u want to have dinner between 6-7 it was quite busy but there is 2 ovens and fridges. However this only left 8 shelves between us. It is a nice accommodation aesthetically but I didn’t find it too social later on in the year and it’s quite far to lessons. You could probably get a broadgate accom with en-suite for the same price as Dagfa aha. I don’t know what ur preference is but I recommend on campus catered accom if ur really into social stuff as it’s great. Also, Dagfa includes gym membership if u care about that

There was 12 all together and no lifts it’s 4 stories. And no it’s not really far maybe like a 10 min walk to get to Trent building but just a big long for a 9am. It depends where ur lessons are like if ur science it would be a far walk humanities will be nearer
