What our students think

Anna Barry
It is absolutely stunning, it is such a beautiful building and I am so grateful to be able to live here. My bed is a small double, it is honestly so big, especially for a student accommodation room - it's more than enough room and it's so cosy.
— Anna Barry, Law, NI
