I was most surprised to read in your article "How not to become a housemate from hell" (The Argus, September 20) that students "live in cheap rented accommodation across the city".
As a mature student living in Brighton for the past 12 months, I have so far failed to find any of this cheap accommodation. Indeed, my own university, Sussex, charges me £85 a week to live in a tiny one-room bedsit on campus.
If your reporter Jenny Legg would like to point me in the direction of this cheap accommodation, which I might obtain without a letter from my parents guaranteeing to pay my rent, or a large cash sum up front, I would be most pleased to hear from her.
