We saw one of the bunk rooms in a year when they had 'over offered'. It was awful, literally a bunk put where a single bed should be with a single wardrobe to share plus another desk (so virtually no space on the floor).
Somewhere I looked at online (may have been UEA after DD and I had been on a campus tour, but I'm not sure) is actually offering 'bunk rooms' as an 'economical' permanent option. Another university (Kent? Surrey?) has 'upstairs / downstairs' units, where the access to the upstairs bedroom area is through the downstairs one. Not sure whether I would find that more or less annoying than the 'twin' rooms at UEA which have a dividing wall, but one person gets the desks and the other gets the wardrobes and basin

Sharing bathrooms generally I have no issue with on my offspring's behalf, but 'twin' accommodation, in my eyes, has much more potential for problems.
