I was in Beit in 85/86. Back then it was a total dump, with half of London coming in to use the sinks in the communal bathroom as a toilet. Plus drunks from the Union bar making relieving themselves in the corridors at the weekends. I'd hope it's improved a bit since then. I had friends in Linstead and that was a palace by comparison. I also see that hideous monstrosity "Southside" has been demolished. The food in there was truly foul, basically it was unfit for human consumption. Happy days!

hey devin! thanks for this immensely informative video. I'm an incoming first year student, planning to begin this autumn. I had a question about the undergraduate halls: I'm looking forward to extensively use a bike to move around London and Parsons and Xenia are part of my shortlist. Unfortunately, there aren't bike storage places at parsons and Xenia so would you know how students residing in these two store their bikes?

@rbasu1444 4 жыл бұрын

Hi. For a 1st year medical student, which one would be best? as per you. would beit be too loud?

@rbasu1444 4 жыл бұрын

I am looking at Beit, Eastside and Southside.

@DoctorDevify 4 жыл бұрын

In terms of noise, it's a hit or a miss. You could be placed close to the bar or facing the street. It really depends, as I mentioned in my pros and cons of beit kzfaq.info/get/bejne/gdJ3qKpe16qdmYk.html . In terms of which I'd go for, southside and Eastside are nearly identical. They are more modern but rooms seem a little bit smaller. They also tend to be more expensive. Beit has a bar and club in the premises whereas Eastside and southside have a convince store, bar, gp, dental centre nearby, I don't think there's that much difference between the 3 really as theyre all so close and similar. Hope that helps!

hi! thanks for the video. what does twin "single occupancy" mean? does it mean you share a room with a roommate?

@DoctorDevify 2 жыл бұрын

It would mean that originally but because of covid it's essentially what was a shared room is now only for one person. That's why it's probably a bit more expensive as you are getting a larger room for one person. Hope that makes sense

@pommeno.2785 2 жыл бұрын

@@DoctorDevify thanks! what does "premium" mean then? I thought it meant you would get a bigger room?

@DoctorDevify 2 жыл бұрын

Before covid, yeah premium meant bigger bed/ bigger room etc I think but not sure how it compares now to a twin room single occupancy. It could be a bigger bed maybe? Might be worth dropping the accommodation team an email for more info

Hi , I live in south east London (45 mins ) train journey to imperial college , is it ok to travel everyday to college , will there be late / early lectures?? Or do you recommend staying in the campus for the first year ? Please could you guide me on this ..

@DoctorDevify 3 жыл бұрын

Hey, I would personally recommend you stay in campus because it's so much easier to socialize, make friends and go to events and just the independence but probably move back to your house in year 2 as it saves money. I'm terms of lectures it really depends on the course you're studying. Some have lectures upto 6 and if you're doing sports and stuff afterwards it could get late.
