The house I lived in with two housemates was a nice and spacious property with a conservatory, garden and terrace. However, the garden and terrace were in a bad condition and the landlord had left a lot of rubbish outside. The kitchen was newly renovated, but there was no washing machine until a month after we'd moved in. The windows were very badly insulated, so that the rooms got very cold, the rooms facing the street were very loud, and there was condensed water inside the windows. One of the rooms was so small that only a single bed and a shelf fit in, still OSL wanted to rent it out as a single room (it was not taken).
