Postgraduate Accomodation close to Strand Campus

I'm an international student from Belgium who is enrolled to do a one year masters (LL.M) in King's College London starting in september. I have arranged an accomodation reservation at Hayloft Point (KCL Residencies), but I duly fear that it will be too expensive and that I will be surrounded by partying undergraduates (some reviews were merciless).

I am thus on the lookout for another residency, with a budget of 300-370£ per week.
* An ensuite
* Approx. close to the Strand Campus
* Preferably for postgraduates only
* Community-living is nice!

I have currently also applied to William Goodenough College, and I'm waiting for confirmation from there. WGC seems like a nice residency to be in, so anything similar with a community spirit is welcome as well. Does anyone have further info on Hayloft Point, William Goodenough College or residencies they would recommend? Would be duly appreciated!

Thank you in advance and kind regards from Belgium!

You could try looking on unitestudents.com, as there is some accommodation in London, but I am not sure where.
