Hi everyone I'm Kristina Morrison! I study Industrial Economics at the University of
Nottingham and this video is going to be a St Peter's Court tour. Now, before I start, this is
where I spent my first year of university, and I had such an amazing time. This is an accommodation
that is not actually on campus, and it is owned by Unite students. I personally thought it was
very convenient for me in terms of the location of it, it was about 10 minutes’ walk away from
Jubilee Campus. It was about 25 minutes’ walk away from main campus, there was also free Hopper buses
that enabled me to get from St Peter's Court to main campus, which also helps, and it's about a
15 minute bus ride from St Peter's Court to city centre, which I absolutely love. You get a range
of different rooms. There is a classic room with a single bed, there's the premiere en-suite rooms,
which is typically three quarter bed or double bed, and then you also have the choice of a
studio. There is so much, so make sure you check out the website for more information.
This video will show the showroom at SPC, which is a double bedroom, so that is what you'll see
in this tour. So as you can see, here is the hello mat, and I'm walking into reception and to my left
there is a laundry room. So there are so many washing machines and dryers, and in order to use
these you'd need to download the Unite Students app and then through the app, you can pay for your
washing. So that's what I'm pointing out here. Obviously, there's a different range of ways that
you can wash your clothes and obviously you'll get people there to help you, so don't worry too much
about how to do your laundry at University, it is a completely different way. This is basically what
the laundry room looks like. So here we have a Unite Students lady showing me the showroom.
So, we're entering and this is what a typical flat would look like. You have
the kitchen over there and then you have your room over there. So as I'm walking in now,
this is the room. Now I must say, I love the fact that the desk has so much room,
there's the drawers over there. The drawers have quite a lot of room as well. And you can see the
way that the desk is laid out and how you have the chair also to go with it. And I also like the
fact that it's facing the window as well, so that the light can show when you're doing your work. I
personally don't like working in the dark. I don't know who does, but I personally don't like it.
And then you have to shelves that you can put your decorations out. Obviously I said
this is a show room so a lot of things here were already put here. You also have a lot
of storage space as well. So here I'm literally showing you the size of the bed as well. This
is a double bed, either a three quarter bed or a double bed,
and here I'm just placing the camera down so that I can show you that there is storage underneath
the bed. I literally love that because you have all this storage and it's hidden, so no one can
see that the storage is there. So I love the fact that there's storage underneath the bed as well.
A lot of the stuff you'd have to bring like the bedding and a lot of your room decor which
I'll probably go into more detail about at some point.
Also stuff to hang up on that billboard that I just showed you. But here is the wardrobe,
now look at the space. Obviously if you need more room than that there's always under the bed.
Now, I would say if this is not enough room for you, make sure that you bring your own storage
spaces or things that you can put storage in. You could put stuff on the desk, you could also have
room where I was pointing as well. You also have a mirror which I love, a whole full body mirror.
It is an en-suite so you will be given a bathroom. So this is what I'm showing now.
So here I'm literally entering into the bathroom. You can see the toilet, the sink
and another mirror. So as I was walking around, I was just showing you the amount of space. So it is
a smaller bathroom, than I'd say compared to other bathrooms, but I will say that it's quite modern,
so I'd definitely say that in terms of bathroom, this is definitely a nice bathroom to have.
So I'm just showing you the space, as you can see.
Also you have a towel rail as well so you can put your towel there,
and overall I'm just showing you the room. I would say, I would highly recommend. You have
a nice view as well of what's going on outside, so if you hear anything going on outside you can go
socialise. I'd say St Peter's Court is one of those places where you'll end up meeting friends
every day! Just random people, you'll just see random people and start talking to them. In terms
of community, St Peter's Court is a brilliant community. So yeah, just have a look at that.
So if you're interested in what the kitchen would look like,
keep watching. Yeah so, look at this, I love the fact that the kitchen was so spacious here.
I dropped the hover on the floor but I was trying to make sure that I kept everything
intact because it is a show room. We can't be showing everything dirty now can we?
But, yeah, we have the pegs, we have more storage in the kitchen, you have the fridge. I don't
really know why there were things in the fridge when this is a showroom. Then we have the freezer
and then we move on. So you have a microwave, you're given a microwave. You also have storage
underneath that. This kitchen is filled with storage to be fair, you have your drawers.
Usually in these types of accommodations you usually have a cupboard to yourself,
a shelf in the fridge to yourself, a freezer shelf to yourself, depending on how many flatmates you
share with. You also have the hob which I'm showing you right now. You have the kettle.
And then you have the counter, so I'm just showing you the layout of the kitchen. And
then you have this space where the sofas are, so if you just want to be with your
friends and you just want to chill, you just want to have a good time for your friends,
the kitchen is almost made to socialise in and have your dinner with other people.
So I would just say St Peter's Court is definitely a community orientated accommodation. And then you
have the overview of what everything looks like. So, I'm just going to let
you observe. I'll give you your time, have a look. Is there anything that catches your eye?
Okay, now that I've finished showing you the room, I'm just going to quickly show you what reception
looks like. So obviously I'm walking in. You have a fob which you scan to enter the building.
So you walk in and this is what reception looks like. So on the left which I kind of walked past,
I really should have stopped, you have reception where you can pick up your parcels. If you have
any enquiries, that's where you'd go. You also have the lounge space where you can watch TV. I
remember when football was on, everyone was in this area, and the vibe, the atmosphere
was amazing. You also have the pool table and the ping pong table which a lot of people tend to use
to socialise. And you tend to meet quite a few new people in the common room. And then you also have
the games area so you have this and you can see the Mario game thingy. So that's also
good and then you have the vending machines as well if you ever need to snack. And then this
is just an outdoor bit, so if you ever wanted to chill outside that is where you would stay.
Now if you have any questions whatsoever, make sure that you leave them in the comment section
down below and if you're intrigued as to what my room looked like, I did a room tour on my
YouTube channel. So make sure that you check that out, the link to my YouTube channel is down below
in the description box. Make sure you subscribe to the University of Nottingham because there
will be plenty more content about freshers and what to expect. That is it, that is the end of
this tour! I hope that you enjoyed it and I hope that you enjoy University of Nottingham.
