It’s among the cheapest student accommodations in Edinburgh so you wont‘t get the glamour of Pollock. There is no common room but the kitchen in your apartments are quite big so you can hang out with the people there very well. There is cleaning once a week which is not really enough unless everyone is super-clean which is unlikely. I personally did not know anyone really outside my flat but there were some parties where people in the accommodation would meet up and hang out generally. There are two washers and two dryers. Its right on Cowgate so it‘s quite noisy outside at night but you get used to it. It is an old building so its quite moist so you have to be careful that you air out your rooms so there is no mould (my flatmate had mould in her room).

TOO NOISY, CAN'T SLEEP AT NIGHT.I HAD TO CHANGE ACCOMMODATION. WOULDN'T RECOMMEND
Pretty standard flats with nice and clean kitchens/ bathrooms / bedrooms but not super modern or anything. Common room non-existent and we supposedly share with Kincaids except our key doesn't work in the door. Generally pretty unsociable - Kincaids is way better that way. 5 minutes from everywhere. Noisy at night unless you go out.
It's very central but can be noisy.
College wynd is only good as if you want to stumble in hive only a few hundred meters away. The mice are fairly good company, hot water is a rarity and you'll always have a least one thing broken. Save yourself.
College Wynd is in an amazing location, close to uni and also the clubs. It's cheap and usually very well kept. I did not find it a very sociable hall - the flats are small and don't seem to integrate much. However, it is directly opposite kincaids court, which has a large common room free to use.
