Garden Halls Townhouse Dilemma!

Hi everyone, I am a postgraduate UCL student and have been placed in a Garden Halls Townhouse room. I recently saw that there are quite a few undergraduates also staying in townhouses. Not that I mind, I am just worried about being the only postgrad surrounded by undergrads. I have asked UoL to confirm which townhouse I'm in and whether it's all postgrad (in my mind that's how they should be allocating) but they won't give me an answer. If anyone has any information or any experiences to share, please do!
In my worries, me and another postgrad with the same placement looked into other options and found a lovely four bedroom flat. I am now considering giving up my GH placement but don't know what to do!

From my sisters experience, she was in GH last year and she knew one postgrad who lived in her townhouse - i am pretty sure it's mostly undergrad. I am looking to switch into GH from Astor as am a UCL undergrad, so if you are going to give it up, would you consider switching?
