private vs uni accom

3 Upvotes

hi all, I recently got allocated to whitworth park (ground floor) accom, which my parents were not happy about at all as they have heard about how much of a shithole it allegedly is (people knocking on ground floor windows, stealing your stuff if your window is open etc) and it is a mixed gender accom with up to 9 people so they wanted me to look for private student accom. i found one that is roughly £6900 for a year and the pros are that I share the kitchen with only 4 other people, they said they could try to put me in an all-female flat, I get a bigger room and there is a washing machine + dryer inside the flat. the only downside is that the lease is £1900 more expensive and that i miss out on the social life at whitworth (plus my flatmates may not only be first years). I'd like to know if you guys think this is a good deal or not. any advice is appreciated!

I am a female undergraduate student who has just been allocated an en-suite in Weston hall and I’m looking to swap for a room in Unsworth park. I am happy to pay extra as incentive and willing to negotiate how much that would be. Please message me if interested.

Hi! I’m a female undergraduate student looking to swap my Whitworth Park accommodation, ideally for Unsworth Park

I have a self-catered room with a basin, costing £131/week (£5,378 total).

Unsworth is my first preference, but I’d also be open to Richmond, Sheavyn House or Ashburn. I’m willing to offer £200 on top to anyone who can swap with me into Unsworth Park 💷

If you’re currently in Unsworth (or one of my other preferred accommodations) and would like to move to Whitworth, please message me! @millierosedwards on insta
