| Comment | Well they are all booked so clearly there are a lot of students wanting to live in them. It certainly used to be the case that student halls were more expensive but with how crazy Glasgow rents have gone that often isn't true anymore. For example look at this one:

From £105 to £115 a week including all utilities, internet, and furnishings. You really aren't beating that in the private rental market even sharing a flat. At least not anywhere in Glasgow. We need a few thousand more rooms like that. Would go a long way in easing the housing crisis in Glasgow, not just for students but for everyone.
Of course we don't need the £200 pound a week ones we need more like the one I posted. I don't think students really need anything more than that to be honest. |
