Most helpful review
Its been over a month since ive moved in and overall its great. however thats mostly due to my flatmates rather than the flat itself. for one the kitchen is extremely small for 6 people, many times it becomes overcrowded and stressful to cook if more than two people are cooking at the same time. its also hard to move around in general if people are sitting down at the tables. My biggest issue is the shower. for 174 a month i just want a functioning shower. instead I have a wetroom which isnt the problem but the real issue is that it is not a well built wetroom. the floor is completely flat with a drain in the corner instead of there being a slight dip in the floor around the drain meaning when showering the whole bathroom becomes flooded, this is not something that only happens sometimes but rather an everyday occurance of having to mop up puddles of water, its frustrating. The cleaning is done well every week however when it comes to repairs there is a noticeable lack of efficiency.
