Carlton Hill Accomodation Leeds?!

I have a medical offer for Leeds and I already applied to James Bailie accommodation a month ago but I am doubting my choice as I am lazy and I don’t really want to take the bus to campus and the school of medicine everyday. I’m also a light sleeper and I can’t stand noisy people at night but i still want to socialise and make friends!! I don’t want to live with a lot of international students tbh is Carlton Hill a good option?? Someone pls give me their review of Carlton Hill or another good option

Carlton Hill is really nice but I've heard they prioritise international students. My coursemate lives there and says it's modern and clean but some silverfish like every Leeds accom

If this is ur first year for medicine, I’d say go for Central village or cityside. They’re the closest to the med building and usually very quiet.

What are your thoughts on cityside?? I’m thinking of applying here - can you give any insight?

cityside is pretty much the same as central village, only more expensive and a bit more modern and cleaner, and a lot less people in the whole accom. usually flats of around 4 or 6 rooms. sometimes lots of upstairs noise, but generally little disturbance from the ambulances (it's right next to the hospital buildings)

cityside's price is going up for next year though, but thats the same with every accom

I already have my results because I took a gap year so maybe that’s why i got allocated early since my offer is unconditional. I put cv as my most important preference so yea i think it helps.
