I think that compared to Peel Park it isn't as good. However you do have to pay more if you live at peel park compared to living at John Lester and you can notice the difference. But personally I lived 2 years at John Lester and I've made some great memories there and I wouldn't have referred to it as a shithole. It's not perfect, but the staff are so lovely, you become friends with you straight away. Student accommodation is never going to be glamorous, and I think that if you walk into JL/EC expecting some like boujee thing then you will be disappointed. Like I said you get what you're paying for. But I very much enjoyed my stay there x

me too sis

So usually they try to pair these things together. For example older students live with older students, second and third years mix together etc. When u get a room u are able to find out who are in the other rooms. So u can contact them before u move in. The sharing of the bathroom is interesting, because everyone has different uni schedules u are most likely to use the bathroom at different times. But as long as u communicate with Ur flatmates then it's perfectly fine. X

Hey @danielaMacDonald I'm going to study midwifery too and I'm 27as well. I have same concerns. What's your ig?

Hey, did you find this out?

there is bike storage but im not sure how good it is.

@@euan4102 Thank you

Ah, so my room specifically was because of the location of my room and just the way the flat was made. In this room it had a little corridor so that my room was almost like an L shape. But the majority of the rooms in JL/EC will be a rectangular or square shape. The room I took in second year which was a silver room with a lounge was a lot roomier because it was a square shaped room x
