Bad Management from University

Pros

Quiet, clean, nice bedrooms Nice super

Cons

Kitchen can pretty much only fit 1 person “Living room” is laughable, it’s 2 chairs facing a wall Heating bangs in the winter, you may have to turn it off if you want to sleep The biggest problem is that it’s managed by the university. They’re an incompetent owner who will try to evict whoever they want whenever they want. Beware
