What it's amazing in Swansea is that you can go out every night! On monday , try the Time the biggest club and on wednesday the Spoofer (far more small but friendly). As far as the pubs are concerned, Orange house is the newest one and always busy. But try also the Walkabout, Indigo, The square and the 7 others! There are all in the same street.

Housing
Type of housing: Apartment/House
Arranged by: Independently - My choice
If returning, I would choose: Apartment/House
Why?
I would choose the same house because it was the cleanest students house i've never seen. The house was completely equiped and close from the institute and the city centre. I have to osay that this house was an exception. Normally the students house here are dirty and messy!
