Staying at Waterways has been an incredible experience! The accommodation offers not only comfort but also a vibrant community atmosphere, thanks to the free events that are regularly organized. These events have provided great opportunities to socialize and make the most out of my stay. The service has been top-notch, with a special mention to Sinead, Stef, Ellie, Priya, and Shain. Their dedication and friendliness have truly made a difference, ensuring that every need is met with a smile. Their efforts have made Waterways feel like a home away from home. Overall, I couldn't be happier with my time here. The combination of excellent facilities, engaging activities, and exceptional staff has made my stay at Waterways unforgettable. Highly recommend!

I think it would be better if the management team could spend more money on regular cleaning in kitchen rather than social activities as activities only fit a small portion of students and kitchen is for everyone.

Extremely nice accomodation, in a great location, with a great value for money and lots of facilities. I've been living here for the last 3 years (almost) and I would definitely choose to do it again. Amazing staff, all of them very friendly and helpful, but I would especially like to thank and recommend Surprise. I think she should be viewed as an example and a model in what she is doing.
