    I stand corrected. Are you in the new revovated rooms in New Square? I was in old rooms in Front Square (although v nice rooms for Front Square), and the showers were large, wonderfully clean (still can't believe Trinity used to clean the bathroom for us - there are advantages to not having your 'own' shower) and a joy.

    The showers in Botany Bay are good as well.

    Anyone want to share a GMB shower review? What are Goldsmith's like?

    The showers in Botany Bay have little or no hot water after 9.30am, at least in my house.
    Goldsmith showers = awesome. hot hot hot all day long.

    If by newly renovated you mean 1960s round plug sockets in only one room, then Yes, otherwise No.

    Good pressure and hot water.

    Door doesn't close right though.

    Trinity Halls showers are great for pressure too, and the bathrooms have underfloor heating which is nice. But some hot water at night would be just lovely (see previous rant about icy-cold showers).

    My Trinity Halls shower was great for pressure but towards the end of the year, they changed the shower head and it got rubbish! Really ruined it. They did this to everyone in my flat, didn't they do it to anyone else?

    Nope, my showerhead was raining men all year long. Mmm.

    So when you apply for a campus room you select where you want it? If they don't have any left there do they give you one in another location or nothing? In other words, is it worth going for a crappier type room hoping there is more chance of getting it?

    Which ones have TV and internet connections? I'd like both but could live without the internet, I'd need my cable TV though. In the ones listed as 'single', does that mean just a room? How many share the kitchen and bathroom? Is there a somewhat sociable atmosphere on campus or do people keep to themselves? I like peace and quiet sometimes but I hate feeling like the only person in the building, which happened last year at Trinity Hall believe it or not (flatmates went home at weekends)

    Which rooms are known as the best and the worst? Is Goldsmith Hall preferable to campus itself? Heard from people who lived there last year that the atmosphere isn't very good/friendly.
