Living in the UWE Student Village has been a really good experience overall. The location is excellent, right on the Frenchay campus, which makes it easy to get to lectures and other university facilities. The flats have a friendly and social atmosphere, making it a great place to meet new people, especially in my first year. The rooms are a good size, and the accommodation feels safe and well-managed. The only downside is that the internet connection can be slow during busy times.
