I was sharing 2 bathrooms (4 showers, 3 toilets) between around 12 girls, but I would rarely bump into anyone so it's definitely better than you think!
Hey great video! I have a question tho, how many rooms are there in each floor in Oakland? And are they mix between boys and girls? I’m asking to figure out how many people have to share the bathrooms, I know you said 12 girls share 4 showers and 3 toilets in another comment, but would it be the same for the guys? Or do they have a completely different floor with their own set of toilets? How does it work exactly 😅 thanks! (Also side note, are the toilets kept clean or do they get dirty often? Not sure if you know how it is for the guys but at least from what you know)
Thank you! So, in Oaklands there’s around 20 rooms on each floor and it is mixed between boys and girls. However the bathrooms are separated by gender. I was staying on the second floor in Oaklands and for the boys on my floor there was 1 bathroom with 2 toilets and 2 showers. However my floor was majorly female hence why they only allocated 1 bathroom to the boys and 2 for the girls. The university ensures they allocate enough female/male bathrooms to ensure there is enough. On the other hand my friend who was staying on the third floor had 2 boy bathrooms and only 1 girl bathroom. So It depends entirely on whether your floor will have more girls or boys but I promise that the facilities will be enough! Regarding the boys toilets and cleanliness there is a cleaner that comes in once every week to provide toilet paper and clean the toilets as well as the communal areas. Hope this helps! And of course let me know if you have any other questions :)
Thanks for a very good overview! I have a question: it was no info about the gym, in another video (filmed 2 years ago by Aidan) it was said that the gym and snooker room exist, but are used as storage. Has anything changed?
@@Elena-vv3kc hello luckily they renovated it last year and it was open for use last time I checked however you need a membership to enter. Once you arrive you can always ask reslife for information regarding the gym. However if that doesn’t work out they recently opened a gym group on Oxford road which is a 5 min walk from hulme hall
Hi, just wondering what the room for the “show rooms”, are like or do you have any info on where these room are situated in Hulme hall? They have offered me a show room at Hulme hall, but worry it’s out the way somewhere 😊 thank you! Xx
@@chloeparkes8716 heyy, the rooms they would show you would probably be actual rooms located in hulme hall. This could potentially be one of the Oaklands block since it is one of the biggest blocks or houldsworth.
heyy so the rooms in houldswourth aren't all identical to this, but the furniture and materials are all the same. As for how many share bathrooms, I'd say that each bloc of a floor is sharing 8-10 between 10-12 people? There are several toilet facilities on each floor but of course these numbers are just rough estimates.
yes it was definitely decent! you have a wide selection so if you don't like some of the options you can opt for the vegetarian/vegan options. Theres also a salad and fruit bar.
Heyy, I applied for halls at the university of Manchester last year and I think I applied before the 31st of august. I believe that as long as you apply before this deadline you are guaranteed accommodation in your first year of study. As to whether or not they have stopped applications due to the cyber incident, I'm not too sure about that but my guess would be that the university would have set up alternative ways to apply so you should definitely contact the halls team directly about this.
Heyy!! I got offered a room in the Christie hall. Is the room there similar to oaklands? I heard it’s quite old there. Have you seen it? Thanks for your reply!!
@@pimbd thanks!! can you talk a bit about the social life at Hulme ! Are there events organised frequently? Did you like the student life and uni experience there?
@@EmilyLeung-mn2ij of course, there were hall dinners which were organised quarterly and the hulme bar was also open every single night where you could socialise with others. I also remember that at the start of the year they organised a bowling trip, IKEA trip and a trip to York. We also had frequent movie nights as well where the hall organised an out door cinema. At the end of the year theres also a thing called "hulme fest" where theres a bunch of inflatables, bouncy castles and games. So you'll definitely have a lot of activities to get involved in!
Thanks so much for your very informative video! It was certainly very helpful :) I just have the following two questions. Is there a specific block dedicated to postgrad or are all the blocks a mix of undergrad and postgrad? In addition, if there is a particular postgrad block/area, I was wondering if the washroom are separated by gender? Appreciate your advice :)
Hello, thank you I’m glad the videos are helpful! There isn’t a specific block dedicated to post graduates and they’re a mix between undergrad and postgrad. And the washrooms are separated by gender in all blocks except houldsworth.
hi! im considering victoria parks campus but plenty of people have told me that it is quite unsafe especially at night, would u recommend a girl staying alone living in this accommodation??
heyy, yes there is wifi it's called Eduroam. Once you're connected to Eduroam you'll have wifi all throughout campus including your halls! Eduroam also works abroad as I was able to connect to the wifi even when I was on exchange in Denmark. As for essentials I'd say definitely bring a pair of sliders as you'll definitely be using them. I'd also recommend bringing a mattress topper for your bed, but other than that I'm certain that you'll have an enjoyable stay :)

Hi, thank u for video, very helpful!🫶🏻
When did u apply for accom? Like the uni has stopped the application due to cyber incident, do u have any info?

@@pimbd thank u!🫶🏻
Hi! I just got an accomodation offer from Manchester and i got the houldsworth block in hulme hall. Are the rooms the same as shown?
Yes they are more or less the same but the layout of the furniture might be a bit different

Can you tell me the month of starting first semester of masters degree in construction management in 2024.
Hello, it should be around September but the exact dates vary each year

@@hi7068 hiii I also stayed there alone. I’d say just don’t walk around late at night alone and be cautious of your surroundings
Hi is there any car parking there? Your voice sounds so soothing btw!
thank you! and yes there is a small parking area but there's probably only room for 5 cars
❤ขอบคุณคะ
I like your vlogs❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you appreciate your comment :)
Is the library for all the students for free ?
You will need an access card to enter the library, but I’ve seen students who don’t live in Hulme use it before.
heyy, id like to ask if there is wireless wifi in the rooms? anything essential you think bringing would make the living experience so much better?
heyy, yes there is wifi it's called Eduroam. Once you're connected to Eduroam you'll have wifi all throughout campus including your halls!
