Large Double, Carr Mills Student Accommodation Leeds

My year at Carr Mills has been thoroughly enjoyable. As a first year student you never have high hopes for student accommodation however Carr Mills - especially the staff - have proved that doesn't always have to be the case. Everyone in the Carr Mills team is lovely, approachable and makes you feel very safe - you can tell that they genuinely care about the students that live here. Small competitions are always being held for the residents and well as there being a constant supply of free goodies in reception to grab; it creates a community feel that I don't think you would find at many other accoms. The rooms are nicely sized with comfortable double beds and en-suites. They are also nicely shaped so you don't feel like you're living in a premier inn or prison - you're able to make it look and feel like home. Some advice would be that the sooner you decorate your rooms/make them your own the sooner you will find it easier to live away from home if that's something you're anxious about. The flats also have large kitchen/living room areas which makes socialising with your flat mates and guests a lot easier. The maintenance team, in my experience, has always been very efficient usually fixing any issues within 48 hours - 24 hours for more urgent ones. All in all I have had an amazing year here and have been genuinely surprised by the high standard of living. Would definitely recommend!
