Housing
Type of housing: On campus
Arranged by: Host university
If returning, I would choose: Apartment/House

There would have been less hassle with other residents, subwardens, and porters to deal with.

Personal comments
They only provide accommodation for first year and international students, and it's pretty poor at that. The student 'village' where they put you is pretty far from campus and the staff is not the most helpful in the world.
