    Thanks for this video, thinking of going oak house because it’s the most affordable in fallowfield. Heard some terrible things about it but you’ve reassured me a bit about choosing it.

      Don’t go oak house if you don’t like to party everyday and drink lots of alcohol. Also if you care about sleep and getting work done then don’t go there

    Hi I have a question, do the fees on the UoM accommodation webpage (~ £6,300) for most accommodations, show the full price or just the accommodation itself, discluding the catering prices ? If so how much does the catering cost for "catered accommodation" ?
