Great fun!
Pros:

Nice having tea making and biscuits in room.
Breakfast great, very varied and tasty, staff very helpful - very nice that it is in hall too - but both mornings started clearing up 15 mins before the end so ran out of eggs on day one (and only made more because my brother complained but by that time he’d had his baked beans without it) and I had to recall the (lovely) fresh loaf because it had been taken away half finished because the lady wanted to wipe the top. Breakfast should be available until the stated time.

Pros:

We stayed in the room with the balcony and it was very comfortable, had a kitchen and couch area which was spacious. It was lovely being able to wander the campus and eat in the hall where the other students eat.
