'Quiet' option for Sheffield accomadation?

I was looking on the University of Sheffield website about accomadation and it said that they offer specidic accomadation for "those who want a quieter place to live". Does anyone know what this means and are there any current/former students who did this option who know what it is like? I'm considering it as an option but don't really know what it means so any insight woould be greatly appreciated, thanks!
Hi, 👋

It's great to hear you are looking into accommodation at the University of Sheffield! 😄

I stayed in uni accommodation for the entirety of my undergraduate at Endcliffe (specifically on Oakholme Road) and I found this area really nice! It wad quiet, on a beautiful street, and a 30 second walk from the botanical gardens. My accommodation in particular was for couples as I came to university with my partner but other "quieter" options could include the studio flats such as Laddow studios or the studios at Wimberry, Windgather and Kinder. 🏡

When you start the accommodation online application, it should ask you your preferences and here is where you can make these kinds of requests. ✏️

You can view online 360 tours here. But if you have more specific questions about accommodation, the accommodation team will be more than happy to help. You can email them @ [email protected].

Let me know if you have any other questions about studying or living in Sheffield. 😀

All the best,
