The campus needs a bit of a refresh, but it is a great location and has great facilities. Student services haven’t been entirely helpful in my personal opinion, especially when dealing with finance queries

Best thing would be the community on campus created by the SU and variety of things to do around campus, worst would be issues with accommodation such as lack of hot water and wifi
