Living next to a picturesque green area with tennis courts provided a feast for the eyes along with a place to exercise. When it comes to the rooms, large is an understatement. Plus,
having a library in the accommodation was extremely beneficial to me. Not only did I
have a peaceful place to study, but I also was able to work on group projects and
assignments with friends. Mahesh P.
