Advantages: location, cleanliness, people

Disadvantages: not really safe to walk about the area at night

I attened liverpool john moores uni for a year 2007/2008. while at the uni i lived in Apollo Court, which i situated on Greek Street which is just off London Road, a busy road with lots of bus stops, a TJ Hughes, conveniences stores, a chemist and sandwich stops. Apollo court is also only 5 minutes walk from the city centre, the National Express bus station and Liverpool Lime street train station.

During my stay i stopped in a 5 roomed flat on the bottom floor of Block B. When i first moved in i was a bit worried about the noise levels but fortunately i never heard anyone coming in drunk as there to go through before going to the actual flats.

The flat itself was clean but not overly clean so it felt uncomfortable and like you were unable to touch anything. In my bedroom there was a single bed with room for storage underneath, a desk, a chair, a wardrobe and shelves for more storage. An added bonus of living in Apollo Court is the ensuite bathroom, ths included a power shower which a constant supply of hot water by a flick of a switch, a toilet and a sink, again all were very clean.

There is also a shared kitchen/living room between the people living in the flat, this consisted of a electric cooker, a fridge freezer, numerous amounts of cupboards and a breakfast bar with stools. The living room had a 2 seater sofa and a comfy chair. In the flats which 7 people lived in there was an extra fridge freezer and an extra chair and sofa as well as a dining table with chairs instead of the breakfast bar and stools.

In addition to the flats there is also a communal area to Apollo Court were there is a laundrette which is open 24 hours, a flat screen with sky, a quiz machine and vending machines.

The staff are very friendly and do their best to help you with any problems you may have, the reception is open 8am-10pm anwhen that is shut there is a security guard present. The building itself is very secure as you can only get access with a key fob and then again you use the key fob to get into your individual flat and bed room.

While i was there there was a friendly atmosphere and everyone stopped to say hi and everyoen was up for making new friends.

The only negative is that at night the area is a bit rough.

Summary: amazing! if i could have stopped there a 2nd year i mighta gone bk to uni!
