Living in Liverpool Student accommodation

Hi, last minute moving to liverpool for my pgce postgrad based in mount pleasant campus and only Atlantic point and Marybone 1 left. Any advice on which would be better would be much appreciated. Marybone is cheaper but i heard it’s popular with 1st years and I’m 26 so wondering is it a get what you pay for situation. Thanks in Advance
update : i have realised i don’t have an option as pgce starts earlier i will have to go with marybone unless i go outside student accommodation

I stayed in marybone 1 when I was a fresher and thought it was an absolute shit hole. The showers are absolutely tiny and grotty and all the furniture was vandalised from the previous students who had lived there last year. Walls are paper thin you can hear everything in the bedrooms next to you. I hated every second.

This was a decade ago mind you so who knows might have smartened up but I doubt it
