Personal comments
Acco at the UNL is quite satisfactory if one goes by the location. London is an expensive city and I guess the cost is not really on the higher side but more facilities to students would definitely be welcome.

Everybody loved it, you will too!
Important factors in my choice
(1) Unimportant – (4) Very important

Quite a likeable place, lots of Asians around, mostly Indians. A very multi-cultural kind of environment but hard work must emanate from the students themselves.

Carry medicines as health care is the most expensive business in UK. Try not to let your routine get spoiled by the night life and socials. Balance the two and beleive me, learning will be a lot more fun. Enjoy London!
