    • @virtueigbokwuwe
      @virtueigbokwuwe  Před 3 lety +1

    Hey! Great Video super helpful. I'm deciding between Wessex Lane and Glen Eyre, But want to go to the one where more parties happen/bigger social life (bc needed for first year lol). Which one would you say?

    • @virtueigbokwuwe
      @virtueigbokwuwe  Před 3 lety

      Both! Wessex Lane is a larger accommodation compared to Glen, however they are the two most popular accommodation. I lived in Wessex lane and so I'm biased saying that its better in terms of social life, so many people live there.

    Chamberlain is not worth the price in my opinion. Currently living in it the room is really small with a double bed crammed in it. Overhyped, in my opinion. The kitchens are nice though.

    Hello, sorry another question. Would you say glen eyre is better than wessex lane when you consider location to shops and everything, also what is the difference between an en-suite and an enhanced en suite, I know that you get a slightly bigger bed, but is the room larger too? Also, would you recommend a shared bathroom when you compare it to the price? Thanks a lot.

    • @nihalg8269
      @nihalg8269 Před rokem

      enhanced rooms are larger in size and i think there are more shelves for your books and stuff. and for the shared bathroom i think it is more about your financial situation, a lot of my friends chose shared bathroom and they are comfy but just be mindful that you re gonna have to carry your stuff in if you dont want others to use it, there will be a sink in the room so you can do your face-care stuff. also watch some room tours for which accomadation you re applying to see how many students it is per flat and if there is only one shower basin.
