It's a student hall of residence so amenities and decor are very basic as expected, but you can't complain for the price, especially in the centre of St. Andrews in high season! A bargain really. Minor gripes - the shared bathroom(s) have very loud electric hand dryers that sound like a vacuum cleaner and can be heard several rooms away.. The lights in the corridors and bathrooms are extremely bright, in the blueish spectrum and permanently on, so not conducive to maintaining melatonin levels if you need to go to the bathroom at night. Suprised that this wasn't a design consideration from an elightened H&S perspective in a hall of residence. Layout of the rooms is a little bizzare, no bedside table so necessary to move desk lamp to beside socket and balance it on top of bed post.. Breakfast excellent (full choice of healthy and unhealthy options from porridge to fried dead animal bits, as well as croissants, toast, nuts & seeds and pretty much everything else). Coffee unfortunately awful however - from one of those automatic machines and tastes like it's made from some sort of industrial concentrate..

Spectacular view of the oldest golf course in the world and the beautiful beach on the north side. Quiet in the hall. Shared toilets and showers reflects the relatively low cost of accommodation. Facing north there is a fair amount of road noise.

It was uncomfortably warm at night with very little air circulation. We tried to open the window more but could not.
The room stank heavily of paint. The place had a very depressing out about it. I would describe it as more like a cell. It reminded me of something out of the year 2000. I had to plug the Kettle into the plug socket underneath the desk as there was no sockets at all in the room at desk level. There was no nightlight either. Bed was comfortable
Staff very friendly and the breakfast was nice.
Personally I would describe the place is making me feel very depressed. I pity the students having to stay there long term because it would seriously impact on my mental health if I had to do so.
Good to see around a university hall, especially as my daughter hopes to go there! The rooms were scrupulously clean. Staff could not have been more helpful and kind. For somewhere cheap to stay in the centre of St Andrews you really can’t fault it :)
