Student Life in Oxford: Beech House Accommodation Questions

[smithleo224]

Hey Oxford gang! I'm a 25-year-old starting at Oxford Brookes and considering Beech House. Can anyone give me the real deal? How are the ensuite rooms? Also, do they really provide short term student accommodation in Oxford? Is there enough space to have friends over? What about the shared kitchen - is it a good place to socialize? I've heard they have a pool table - does anyone actually use it? Location-wise, how's the walk to Oxford Brookes? And what about getting to the city centre - is it convenient? Any good spots nearby for a night out? Your honest opinions would be super helpful!
