The Resident Life Program is an integrated, contemporary, student life program, run by UniLodge for our residents. It is designed to support and bring out the best in each resident through the duties and activities carried out by Senior residents, Residential Advisors, the Residential Life Manager, the Customer service staff, and the General Manager.

There are two main room types for you to choose from:

• Standard Bedroom 
• Ensuite Bedroom 

You do not have a kitchenette in your room - however what you will have access to is an amazing Communal Kitchen and Dining area for all your cooking requirements. 

The common area kitchen and dining area are regularly cleaned by cleaners appointed by UniLodge. The cleaners’ duties do not include tasks that are your responsibility such as: 

• Washing up your dirty dishes
• Removing rubbish and placing it in the rubbish bins ($50 penalties may apply)

Any items left in the common area kitchen will be thrown away into the rubbish. Any sink blocked by food must be reported to a UniLodge staff member. Charges may apply.

A coin-operated laundry with washing machines and dryers is located on level 2, next to the sports lounge.

Bicycle racks are located in the security bike storage room. You are encouraged to use this secure bicycle storage, and not leave your bike outside you room. You are not permitted to leave your bike in your room, as it can cause damage to the wall that you will be liable for. 

Car parking is not available at the property. Fortunately there is a convenient University-operated car park on Tiernan St, located directly opposite our building. The University has an annual fee for as little as $750* (which is less than $2 a day). *Price correct as at 21.06.19.
