Is that the one that's in Manchester? Your student gaff reminds me of where a friend was staying in Bristol. It looked like the flat in The Young Ones but much, much worse. And it was worse: he got really ill and even in the middle of winter he'd stand outside in the freezing air to warm up because at least it wasn't full of toxic mould. It was really horrible there. I mean Bristol in general was okay, but the student accommodation was a bit dodgy.
