Very good, I like the scenery outside the window, very beautiful, here to meet a lot of new friends, they are very cool, every day looking at the scenery outside the window want to cry, there are six little foxes in the park behind

A lovely character building, with bright spacious rooms. However, the way the institution operates is disappointing; maintenance requests have been ignored, and as have emails sent from students to accommodation services. The communication between staff from the institution that are supposed to be "helpful" and their students is hugely frustrating and mismanaged. The accommodation itself is generally nice, but sadly the same cannot be said for those responsible for managing it.

The property is old so things often get broken or stop working but the space is good.

The location (Camberwell) was great for going to the College but to go to the centre I had only one option which was buses, having tube or something else would be ideal.

Generally good location but the South House of Portland House is anyway a bit isolated.

Portland House is a genuinely fantastic accommodation especially for the price. The common room is nice and chill and the best part about it is the location. It is located next door to a Sainsbury’s and the UAL Camberwell campus. All weekly shopping is in very walkable distances like lidl, Poundland, several banks etc, as well being only a 20min bus from lcc and Chelsea campuses of UAL However the area is pretty dangerous so I don’t recommend going out on your own. Gardens house is another UAL accommodation which is also neighbouring it so if you make friends iver there u can get access to their common room and stuff too which is pretty great. The worst part is the wifi, which continuously disconnects from all devices, I’ve asked around and it happens to everyone. As a result it’s near impossible to play online games and I often find I’m having to use data, but when it is working it is quite fast.
