The Maltings is reasonably priced and in a good location, in my opinion. My studio room is great, the building's main living area is a great location to mingle with other students, and the staff is really friendly.

The Maltings is cozy, worthwhile, and fairly priced. My en suite room is well decorated, the staff is kind, and the community space is perfect for studying and hanging out with friends.

I pay relatively little to stay at the Maltings. My room is always neat and comfortable, all of my utilities are contemporary, and I truly love participating in all of the events hosted at this vibrant location.
