Horrible ventilation, it's either too cold in winter or too hot at other times of the year. The seats have no chargers even at the sides.

I don't recommend One Pool Street as an accommodation at all. Your basic daily needs as a human being will not be met. Inconsistent hot water to shower, and often you will have to finish your shower in freezing cold water when it's -3 degrees outside. Heater rarely works inside the room, so you will be freezing most of the time. Toilet has not been flushing properly for several days. Lights in the kitchen don't work. Ventilator in the kitchen doesn't work. Poor kitchen design. Washer and dryer in the laundry rooms are always breaking, leaving 300+ residents to argue over 2 dryers, when there should be 4 working ones. We were rushed to move into this building which clearly was not ready for us. Too expensive for the lack of facilities we are able to use. Too much of a hassle to commute to and from main campus.

This accommodation is the worst ucl accommodation available. if you are allocated it, i would recommend joining the waitlist to change and staying in other accom where possible - go intercollegiate or live at home... Moved in 3 months ago and there is no hot water, rarely heating and the bathrooms have all been out of use for 4 days with the advice being walk 15 minutes to westfields to use the public bathrooms. For 250 pounds per week, it is absolutely not worth it. The only thing I enjoy are the people (nothing to do with the building though) and large kitchens but this doesnt make up for the fact the rooms are 6m^2 and its 45 minute commute away from main campus. Not happy and when issues are reported and compensation is requested, we are simply ghosted.

Security guard here was so rude that at first I thought he was a thug pretending to be a security guard to lure me in so he could rob me.
Security Guard: Why are you in here?!
Me: I'm interested in architecture & like to look around buildings as a hobby.
Security Guard: Get out!
Also the security guard was holding an old tabloid reading "Who's A Naughty Boy Then?" as if intentionally trying to be a stereotypical arrogant security guard from a pantomime.
It left me thinking "Maybe they shouldn't sack him, because if they did, I bet he would become a criminal".
