Hi i'm looking for anyone that has a room in the J block for Barnes specifically, but just Barnes or anyone who is going to be a first year at Keele.

My son is starting at Keele in September, studying Physics and will also be in Barnes (not sure which block yet! But he has a superior ensuite room if that helps?!). He'll be moving in on the 18th Sept but if you see a really tall lad (he's 6' 8" so you won't miss him!) say hi! He's quite quiet but very friendly 😊

if your son is staying in a superior ensuite room he will either be in Barnes Z or Barnes Y (sometimes different). You can find out by looking at the room name on the keele accommodation portal. For example if you were staying in Barnes Z and your flat was No.26 and your room number 4 then your room name would show as BAR Z 26/4 . - I am staying in Barnes Y

Finally asked him! He is in Z.

Ah cool I stayed In Z last year, both Y and Z are the same accommodation type but Y just has more flats than Z.

Yeah and the letter before is your block so you will be the first room in the flat.
