What do you think about the safety, condition, location and cost of your accommodation?

Heating wouldnt work for half the year, as well as lack of safe drinking tap water, trouble with the pipes. Old small rooms with a lack of security, often locks didn't work and fire doors were broken Unsafe feel after dark and kitchen often had a multitude of issues. Safeguarding and staff would just come into rooms without prior warning
