• Upvotes

Hi! I have a catered single ensuite room at Garden Halls that is £430.50 per week for a 40-week contract that I am looking for someone to takeover.

• 25-minute walk from KCL, 10-minute walk from UCL, 20-minute walk from LSE
• Nearby the Brunswick Centre, which has a Waitrose, Robert Dyas, Superdrug, Gail's etc.
• Closest train stations are Russell Square & King's Cross St Pancras (both are a 5-min walk)
• 5-min walk from The Gym Group London Bloomsbury

I am going to be switching to an LSE-only accommodation so I am looking for someone to takeover my contract. DM me if you are interested or know anyone who might be.
