 Great location for the University. A good alternative to a hotel and an attrctive price. The place I was given wasn't in James Court but another (more convenient) location. |
|
 I was allocated a place in Drummond Street. Residential place in an old school. Good for me, but not necessarily if the booked location is where you want to be. I wasn't told of the change until check in. |
