hi i am now staying in sun u residence, yes its a bit 'old n dont looks so good despite its name condo'.let me clear all your doubts
1)Environment quite ok, there will be 'kakak' coming to clean the unit NOT your room every few days. Security yeah its quite ok with the access card system. comfortable or spacious err its ok but if you got tons of stuff then its gonna be very small space left
2)that i have no idea since i have no idea what kind of people they will put you with. from my experience, i have been getting mostly good housemates/roomates. only once i got smoker housemate n end up all the laundry got smoke smell
3)yes there is water heater
4)there is a water machine which dispense hot n cold water and its filtered
5)supposedly its not allowed according to official rules but shhhh ..... induction cooker yes,but dont get caught LOL
6)yes free 128 kbps slow dao ........, however there is an option 1mbps rm70/month or 512 at 60 or 50 cant remember. PPS is not block BTW lol
7)yes there is washing machine some unit got new nice ones from samsung or panasonic while some unfortunately got the old toshiba one(not really old erm 2008 model)
8)sunway shuttle bus n taxi is available at main entrance.taxi mostly dont use meter or depend on where you want to go then they may use meter,most importantly try to runding the price
let me add some more
9)there is a fridge pretty old one
10)some or perhaps all unit have TV dont expect LCD with astro just normal tv
11)convenience store downstairs as well as poolside cafe
well on the other hand sunway monash residence is wow stark difference perhaps coz its new
inside the room you get a small fridge n TV so according to some of the people that stay there most of the time you stay in your own room,unlike in sun u residence where we often sit in the living room n chat
with regards to internet monash residence provide 1GB yes4g free,if you want xtra pay more or use starbucks wifi
aircond is metered up to 180hr per month, excess usage charge more n free laundry up to 5kg i think 1wk since SMR no washing machine
Thank you for answering my questions (Share with me of your/anyone experiences, if there are anymore)
At first, I thought about Monash residence but wow..the price so I think I will pretty sure end up with Sun-U residence(Twin Sharing).
I have read the rules and regulations, and it seems pretty strict, ouch.
1. Enviroment - I think as long as it's quiet enough, that will be alright. Since, I'm not living in a fancy house here too.
2.Housemates/roommates - This is the thing that I most concern about.
3.water heater - Checked!
4.Water filter - Checked!
5.Cooking - I would like to cook too if I am allow to, but rules and regulations said it no, so better just follow. Checked!
6.Internet - As long as I can use to do research, and not too slow(like 1mb for an hour) that's fine for me.
7. Laundry - Uh, after you washed your clothes...How do you guys dry it? From the floor plan that I saw, I can't see any places to dry the clothes.
8.Transportation - I think that will be fine, good to have some walk except during night.
EXTRA
-How's the air condition, can only switch on in a certain time?
-Are there any library around or you just stay in the room whole time to do your study?
-There are more facilities provided in Monash residence, can you guys use it if you are not from there?
This is the first time I study in sunway college, really hope I could get a good details of it.
At the same time, I also have contacted and emailed to the admin and staffs there but I think they got annoyed by me already.
Thanks, guys
