Reviews of 40 George Square, The University of Edinburgh
"Last time I checked this building was called Hume Tower. In fact, this should still be the correct name"
"Excellent very helpful old college library staff . Specially John."
"I used to study here but would always get distracted by the view. It might be cold (especially the higher up you go) but it is definitely a respite from the main library."
"Woman who was manning the law library was rude, patronising and extremely unhelpful. Me "I'm trying to find a book, I'm not used to these computers". Her "you're a graduate of the university, I'm sure you can figure it out". I did not. She might have been there since 1974, but she does not like it."
"The teaching rooms are comfortable. Specially the lower ground. The café there is nicely served."
