Breakfast was excellent, a few changes from previous years but still very good. Rooms are clean and well maintained, build is secure and easy to get about.
Common room in the house did not have any spoons or other tableware, unlike twin rooms no kettle or coffee supplied

Good location accessible by frequent buses, great buffet breakfast, excellent value during the Festival. Staff friendly.
The shared bathrooms were ok.
6 / 10Average·Aug 2026
Big breakfast but not the best quality. Location just 30 min walk to the centre and close to a bus stop making it pretty convenient. The venue is surrounded by green which makes it scenic.
The room was dirty, with mold in the shower. Very uncomfortable mattresses. I didn’t expect luxury and comfort being a student accommodation but the price is way too high for the rooms. Rooms were not sound proof making it impossible to sleep without earplugs cause you hear everyone walking in the hallway. Also the bright light in the hallway gets inside the room through the room door making it impossible to have a dark room.
