Cunningham House vs Modern

    I'm just finishing out my application for Trinity Hall and for my budget I have to decide between a Cunningham House single room or a Modern shared room. Is the upgrade in facilities worth having to share a room in Modern? Are the people in Cunningham house really isolated like I've read, and how many of them are there compared to those in Modern?

    I was in Cunningham, I think it will depend on the other people in your houses etc. and not on the facilities, if people make the effort and get along it'll get great, I'm still friends with many of the Cunningham house crew.

    I had a great time when I was there, bear in mind you'll be sharing a kitching / dining area with 12 other people ( 6 rooms per floor if I remember correctly (it was 8 years ago)) but each floor has 2 bathrooms, never found it an issue.

    The bedrooms in Cunningham are quite big and I just could not share a bedroom with anyone else in rented accommodation

    Never felt like it was isolated, regularly had parties, get-togethers and people over from the modern apartments.

    If it hasn't changed from when I was there, there were to male houses with 12 in each , and a larger female house with either 18 or 24 ( the girls house had either 3 or 4 floors I think)

    Hope that helps!
