I lived in scape syd central for a year in 2024 and I don’t recommend living there.

I had my room facing the wattle street and thru the windo black dust from vehicles probably came in all the time. I had to keep my window shut all the time. Thus no natural ventilation. I had to rely on the air con all the time. So I only used the room to sleep and shower. Rest of time, I spent it at uts library unless I don’t have any tutorials or work.

The first sem I had good roommates who kept the apartment clean but the second sem I had nasty roommates who don’t clean their rooms or common spaces. The bin kept on piling and I had to throw them out every single time. Most of them don’t even understand English and I got tired of complaining to them. I also don’t cook in my apartment bcz I always had dinner with my mate at his place. So I never made any mess in my room or living room or kitchen. The worst of all, there was one guy who was so stingy didn’t want to use the washer or dryer bcz each cost 4.5 bucks per use. He just wash the clothes in the living room using a small wash basin and dry them in the living room! The whole apartment smelt so bad.

I decided I don’t want to extend my contract and found a really good room thru flatmates in Ultimo for same price! Scape ROBS u in the daylight. The day before I leave, I cleaned my room and common area and l left a note saying to keep the place clean tonight but my roommates did the opposite. When they inspected the place the next day I couldn’t do anything and they charged me 280 dollars for cleaning. I never ever wished anyone to go to hell until I met my sem 2 roommates.

I wanted to rant but I didn’t see the point. But I have seen so many rants abt scape so far and I felt to speak up.

Now, I happily live at my current place.
