    Hello,
    Great video! Thank you!
    Just thinking about storage options in room as my daughter is coming from overseas. Where did you get your under bed storage cubes from? And with a couple large suitcases to be emptied, ideas where to store them one unpacked?

    • @aleeshabruce
      @aleeshabruce  9 місяців тому

      Hey! Under-bed storage is from Amazon! You could also get drawers or a cube storage unit from Ikea

    Hey, I loved your video btw! I just wanted to ask a question I’ve booked a shared bathroom in Bankside and I wanted to know do they ever pair you with the opposite sex. For example could I be sharing a bathroom with a guy? Oh and also do they let you take the food from the canteen up to your room to eat or do you have to eat in the hall most of the time?

    • @aleeshabruce
      @aleeshabruce  Рік тому

      Hello Sofia! No, they only pair shared bathrooms by the same sex, and yes you can bring your food up to your room :)

    hey! thank you so much for the video, how did you manage to get the room, was it because someone cancelled and rooms became available? everything it fully booked atm and i can't find anything ensuite :(

    • @aleeshabruce

      Hello! No worries! I actually got this room because it was reserved for me as a part of my scholarship programme, and yes Bankside is catered :)

    Is it available for post grads too? Also, overall do you prefer Bankside or would you have an inclination for one of the other accommodations (rosebery, siddney webb etc)?

    • @aleeshabruce
      @aleeshabruce  Рік тому

      Hi! I’m not 100% sure if it is available for postgraduates (but I don’t see why not). Maybe email the bankside reception team to double check? And I definitely prefer Bankside House out of the LSE accommodations. However, Bankside is a very sociable, noisy accommodation with mostly Freshers (I liked this because I was able to make a lot of friends), this might be something to consider if you’re a postgraduate! :)

    hi! how many people would you be sharing a bathroom with if you booked a single room in bankside? (no ensuits available :( )

    • @aleeshabruce
      @aleeshabruce  11 місяців тому

      You’d only be sharing with 1 other person :)

    Im conflicted between Bankside and Garden Halls. Which one would you recommend for a first year international student?

    • @aleeshabruce
      @aleeshabruce  Рік тому +1

      Hello! I would recommend Bankside House if you prefer a more sociable environment and want to get to know LSE students. Bankside is the most popular LSE accommodation. However, Garden Halls is really nice I had a few friends that stayed there and loved it. If you want to get to know people from different London unis Garden Halls is the way to go. I'm also biased though as I only ever stayed at Bankside...

    • @aleeshabruce
      @aleeshabruce  2 роки тому +1

      Thank you so much! My room is £267 per week for 39 weeks, but this is on the pricier side of rooms available at Bankside House :)

    With how many people do you share the kitchen ?

    • @aleeshabruce
      @aleeshabruce  Рік тому +1

      Around 20 people - which is quite a lot of people. The reason it is so many though is because the hall is catered, so meals are provided in the restaurant. Hope that helps!
