Most helpful review

The location is very convenient as it is close to central London, within walking distance to Soho, Convent Garden, Chinatown etc. The price in comparison to other Imperial student accommodations is slightly more on the expensive side because even though it's far from campus it isn't exactly cheaper either. However, the price in comparison to private housing, is far cheaper.

The hall is in a perfect location in central London so I can’t complain. We also have our kitchens cleaned daily and our rooms are cleaned once a week so that’s amazing. It is quite a quiet halls though, I don’t think I know even a quarter of the people here.

It was a really stupid hall (xenia) located in Waterloo, overpriced as you could get a much better accommodation in Hammersmith for the same price and it would be more convenient

Far from uni. Waterloo is a bit of a hole and the allure of central London gets old fast. Poorly run hall

Xenia is a great hall for first year imperial students. However, it is a 25-30 journey away from the imperial South Kensington campus. The wired internet is alright, one can pay to upgrade speeds. However, unless you are willing to pay another £15, you are limited to 2 devices. The wifi is only accessible in common areas and even then, it is rather unreliable.
