The Roman House has been a great accommodation for my 3rd year of university. The rooms are very spacious with lots of storage places and good comfy beds. The en-suite is a great size with a roomy powerful shower. The kitchen is also a lovely area with suitable storage and comfortable seating and is perfect for students. Overall I have had a great time here, and all of the staff have been very supportive and accommodating- especially through the lockdown. Would definitely recommend it.
