Great location, loved my room. Got lucky with my flat mates. Just hated the fire alarms that appeared nearly every night!!!

This accommodation is very good. It is basic and meets the needs for students. The flat parties are insane and the scenes here are awesome. We have already got a few supermarket trolleys in our flat as we needed some liveliness to it. The rooms are fairly clean and tidy and the receptionists are on point with their customer service skills. The washing machines could do with an update but apart from that everything is good. The WiFi is so fast with downloads speeds of up to 70mb a second meaning gaming is no problem at all.

This was my first option as it was close to many many supermarkets (sainburys, tesco, waitrose...), and it was also a 10 min walk to university. There's also a 24/7 reception which is amazing because they collect any parcel for you anytime! They also organised plenty of activities and events for the residents. The room was fully equipped and the size is perfect if you don't have thousands of things, there's a cleaner 1 per week for the kitchen which was amazing! I really reccommend it to anyone looking for a student acommodation!

Good storage in the bedroom and spatious kitchen. Good 24 security and Resident Assistant support. The WiFi is pretty good too. Great location, only a 5 minute walk to the University and library. Great people and atmosphere too.

The rooms are very old and multiple things were broken when I moved in. The shared kitchen is disgusting and nothing in the hall of residence seems clean at all. I'm on the top floor and there in no lift.

For the money you pay for the halls the only real positive is the location, you are right on top of Cutty Sark station and about 5 minutes away from the university but in terms of the rooms they are extremely dated! Definitely need to have an overhaul to be brought into the modern times

It is a nice enough Halls, in a good location. But the fire alarms went off all the time. And there were a lot of problems in my room which I told people about but no one ever fixed them. The balcony’s are very good, however, but it was quite disappointing that there is no lift on one side of the building.

The location is amazing. You literally couldn’t ask for anything better. The rooms are small but nothing more than expected or needed. Only 3 washing machines and dryers between 250 students is appalling. The rooms are not at all soundproof, and the noise from the courtyard was a big problem. There were fire alarms almost at least twice a week during the night. One night there was around 10, which was traumatising to say the least. The kitchens were too small to be shared between 7, but it wasn’t a major problem. The furniture in the rooms was good. Having a fridge in the room is very handy, especially since the fridge in the kitchen was extremely small. The WiFi was hit and miss. I made good friends within my flat but there wasn’t any opportunity to meet people from other flats. That isn’t an issue though. The bathroom was small and completely fitted. Overall, not the best and not worth the money.

Personally don’t recommend these halls as there were fire alarms every day at 3am for weeks, the kitchen smelt of cigarettes constantly, anddddd there are also mice ðŸ��

location is great but the fire alarm is always going off in the middle of the night and it’s dirty, for example we had a rat in our kitchen.

Great location, very central to the Royal Naval College campus, and right near the national rail and dlr transport links.

The location is easily my favourite thing about the whole university experience- living above a McDonald’s, Waterstones, subway, Superdrug and the DLR station certainly has its perks! All rooms come with its own bathroom, and although the bedroom can feel small at times the kitchen has sofas for social space. The halls are around a 4 minute walk to the uni which is great!

The location is incredible, right in the centre of Greenwich, 2 minutes away from uni. It's also above the DLR station, a wetherspoons and shops/takeaways so you can literally walk downstairs for any of those things. The halls themselves weren't great condition, everything is a bit old and basic, but it is what you expect for student accommodation. All the rooms have an ensuite bathroom which is something that I really appreciated. The kitchens/communal areas in each flat did differ, some were a lot bigger than others and had extra fridge space (which is annoying if you're in a flat with a smaller kitchen) and most of the flats were between 6-8 people. it was a relatively small block of flats so everyone kind of knew each other which was quite nice, and there was a courtyard in the centre for smokers. The other downfall was that there was no wifi (I don't know if this has changed yet) but we had to connect laptops with Ethernet cables and then as a flat we bought our own router to create the wifi (a few other flats did this also). This was especially annoying because the phone signal was really bad in this area too, so without wifi it's impossible to use your phone.
