The university accommodation was satisfactory. The rooms were clean and functional, providing the basic amenities needed for a comfortable stay. However, the facilities could benefit from some improvements, such as better Wi-Fi connectivity and more communal spaces for socializing. Overall, it served its purpose as a place to live during the academic year.
