“I have loved my time at Marties and can’t recommend it highly enough. I especially loved being in a friendly and respectful community that allowed me to study when I needed to (being a vet student), but also provided plenty of opportunities to relax and de-stress with friends.

Having cleaners regularly cleaning the cottages and vacuuming the bedrooms weekly, as well as fresh sheets weekly meant 1 less thing I had to worry about, given it was the first time I had lived out of home.

Having our own reverse cycle air-conditioners in each room meant I could be comfortable on hot summer’s days or cold winter’s nights. We also have a washing machine and dryer in each cottage, saving us a trip outside to the external laundries that other accommodations use. We don’t need any more excuses to put off doing laundry!

The Fairfax centre is a great resource. A place to get away from your room, and enjoy time with friends. A place to play billiards, table tennis, darts, board games or computer games. A place to watch TV and have a movie night with lots of comfy couches and bean bags. A place to cook and share meals. Or even a place to study in the adjacent study commons with large tables, a library of textbooks, and a whiteboard for learning alone or in groups.”
