Personal comments
the university accomodations are ok, even if they look like hospitals sometimes :-) ;at the beginning i stayed into a university accomodation cause i preferred to have an accomodation just from the first day of my experience; even if i'm really flexible, i think it was too expensive (270 £ for a shared room) but really well located (4 minutes walking from the department!!!)
