UEA accomodation advice ?

Have an offer for UEA starting in september and really need to choose my accomodation although I'm unsure on which to go for. I'm debating between the en-suit village and en-suit campus. Naturally swaying towards the village as its that little bit cheaper although kitchens don't look as nice. Has anyone got any comments or advice ? would love a bit more of an insight !

Hi @spicy toast.56, congrats on the offer! I put the en-suite village down as my first choice but ended up with an en-suite campus room and ended up really loving it! I didn't spend too much time in the kitchens so I wouldn't worry about that too much. The Village is just outside campus so it's a bit of a longer walk but if you want to save money it's a great choice! There's a laundrette nearby and a Tesco's Express at the end of the road, whereas en-campus accommodations are at the centre of campus so they are closer to lectures and on-campus places like the shop and coffee shops. Ultimately I would just think about where you want to be location-wise and how much money you'd like to save.

Hope this helps but get back to me if you have any questions!
