What do you feel is missing? My daughter spent two years in halls abs one year in a privately rented house .

Compared to the house the halls were like a palace.

She had a safe private room in a secure building. Decent kitchen. Living area. En-suite bathroom. Heating.

The house ought to have been condemned. It was damp and cold and the other housemates were worried about utility bills so they kept the heating off most of the year. It was also filthy and only as secure as the last drunk person to come home remembering to lock the door.

I was much much happier when she was back in halls for her third year.
