Host
Point
Campus
should
be
incredibly
thankful
for
their
prime
location
on
the
LUAS
line,
because
that
was
about
the
only
saving
grace
for
this
housing
experience.
Upon
move-in,
our
entire
suite
was
absolutely
filthy,
and
had
clearly
not
been
touched
since
the
former
residents
moved
out.
Our
bedsheets
were
visibly
dirty,
the
floors
were
covered
in
dirt
and
grime,
and
there
was
food
in
the
fridges
that
had
been
expired
for
over
two
months.
While
the
staff
did
clean
this
up
after
complaints,
that's
hardly
a
good
first
impression
to
make.
And
unfortunately,
a
clear
lack
of
respect
for
their
own
facilites
became
a
recurring
theme
for
Host
Point
Campus.
It
also
doesn't
help
that
the
staff
themselves
were
almost
uniformly
rude
and
uninterested
in
helping
with
even
the
smallest
of
things.
At
a
certain
point
I
dreaded
going
to
the
front
desk
to
claim
my
mail,
because
I
knew
I'd
be
greeted
with
a
heavy
eye
roll
and
an
exasperated
sigh.
The
negligence
of
the
staff
was
made
even
worse,
however,
by
a
blatant
lack
of
respect
for
resident
privacy.
Host
Point
Campus
conducts
frequent
room
inspections,
which
I
understand
is
within
their
rights
and
not
at
all
unusual.
However,
on
several
occassions
a
staff
member
would
show
up
to
my
door
for
an
inspection
after
NO
advance
warning,
which
is
incredibly
uncomfortable.
It's
hard
to
feel
at
home
when,
three
weeks
into
your
stay,
you
leave
your
room
to
find
a
staff
member
patrolling
the
common
room
of
your
suite,
and
then
of
course
being
dismissive
and
condescending
when
you
ask
questions
about
why
they
are
there
with
no
warning.
But
perhaps
one
of
the
worst
things
about
these
inspections
is
the
lofty
standard
that
staff
set
for
residents,
when
they
themselves
clearly
don't
care
to
clean
rooms
between
tenants.
Myslef
and
my
suitemates
were
constantly
reminded
that
so
much
as
a
stray
article
of
clothing
on
the
floor
of
your
own
bedroom
was
cause
for
a
fine,
creating
an
atmosphere
of
fear
that
made
living
at
Host
Point
Campus
more
stressful
than
it
needed
to
be.
Most
egregiously,
my
suite
was
directly
threatened
with
a
fine
for
using
a
drying
rack
to
dry
our
clothes
in
the
common
space,
as
this
was
deemed
an
"obstruction"
in
a
room
that
measured
around
10
meters
long
and
3
meters
across
(picture
included
below
to
prove
scale).
This
left
myself
and
my
friends
with
no
other
legitimate
options
to
dry
our
clothes,
as
the
dryers
in
the
Host
Point
Campus
laundry
room
do
NOT
work,
as
clothes
leave
the
dryer
as
wet
as
when
they
entered.
So,
if
the
dryers
do
not
work,
and
we
are
threatened
with
fines
for
air
drying
our
clothes,
there
is
no
legitimate
way
to
dry
clothes
at
Host
Point
Campus.
To
me,
that
makes
this
space
unlivable
and
warrants
a
one
star
review.
That
these
staff
have
the
audacity
to
constantly
hold
a
threat
of
fines
over
residents'
heads,
while
they
themselves
obviously
don't
care
to
even
sweep
the
floors
of
rooms
in
turnover,
reflect
the
terrible
quality
of
service
at
Host
Point
Campus
that
I
would
encourage
every
resident
to
be
aware
of
before
signing
on
to
live
here.
