Halls Of Residence At The University Of Liverpool

I lived in Dale Hall in my first year at the university. It was the most expensive choice! The bathrooms were shared between two of us, which wasn't so bad, just hope you get a clean bathroom mate! The hall was girls only. The rooms were a horrible colour green, but pretty spacious, considering it's halls. The kitchen was a bit gash, two microwaves between 18 people, and no cooker!! But the halls were catered. Tea was a bit of a pain though, the queues are very long and you can be waiting hours, if you're near the end there's nothing left, but they are a good way of meeting new people when you first move in. The halls can get noisy, and it can ...  Read the complete review

I lived in Lady Mountford Hall during my first year (5 years ago!)... this is my take on it.... LMH is divided into blocks of 3 floors with 12 rooms each. Each floor shares a kitchen, bath, shower, 3 toilets with a larger communal kitchen on the 2nd floor and a communal drying room on the third. Each block is mixed but each floor is either male or female. The rooms are of a reasonably good size and the walls are NOT sound proof... so hope your neighbour does not live for the night! It is a little bit of a pain sharing showers etc. but they are cleaned daily as are your rooms. Food inevitably goes "missing" from the fridge... ...  Read the complete review

I`ve not lived in Melville Grove myself - I`ll say that upfront to be totaly honest. However my boyfriend and a lot of other friends DO live there, so I spend a fair bit of time both in the halls andthe surrounding area. There is a HUGE problem here with security, but I`ll get to that in a moment. The rooms themselves are relatively small but quite well designed. You get enough space to keep all your stuff without any problems, and a sink in your room. There are bathrooms and showers, as well as a bath and a shared kitchen, in each house. Each house has 7 or 8 bedrooms in it, which means that the facilities aren`t overcrowded. However, all this ...  Read the complete review

I have been staying at Dale Hall for the last few days as I was attending a conference in Liverpool. I haven't lived there as a student and don't know much about the ambience of the place during term time or how much it costs. However, although I didn't stay here for a long period of time, my visit gave me some idea of life in this hall of residence. Rooms - The rooms are a reasonable size and the plus point is that you only share a bathroom with one other person. The layout is quite strange; there is one door and then a tiny hallway with three doors leading off from that. Two are bedrooms and one is the bathroom. The rooms have a built in wardrobe ...  Read the complete review
