A UNIVERSITY student shocked social media after sharing a video of her dirty basement room.
Ness, who is currently in his final year at Durham University, revealed he paid £700 for the pleasure of living in a mould-infested room.
Despite paying a huge amount every month for the house, Ness was subject to excessive amounts of mold on the window sill and in a small street-level window with iron bars.
She revealed that the window was not watertight, adding that the temperatures are “Baltic”.
After descending two flights of uncarpeted stairs, she wrote: “pov, you are living in a student house trying to make the most of the basement that no one wanted and that you pay over £700 a month for.”

“Spiders, humidity, Baltic temperatures and steel bars in a 12” window at road level” were also added to the list of horrors in Ness’ room.
As soon as she went downstairs, she showed the room, which had little lighting.
But Ness managed to decorate it as well as it should have and turned it into a relatively cozy space.
The woman also posted a follow-up video showing the condition of her windows.
Around the window, the walls were covered in mold and it was difficult for her to open the rusty door handles, but there was little point in doing so.
Since she was in the basement apartment, the windows were protected with rusty iron bars and faced a busy main road full of cars and pedestrians.
She revealed it was considered the worst room in the house as she was spending a year abroad when her flatmates visited properties.

Although she attends Durham University, students are expected to rent privately after their first year, so the university had nothing to do with the property.
The video quickly went viral on his TikTok account @precarious_sagittarius with more than 2 million views and 148 thousand likes.
People quickly took to the comments, horrified by the room and how much it cost her.
One person wrote: “Not the entrance to the medieval prison.”
Room requirements
Home experts in Build safely They say bedroom windows should be 20 to 40 inches from the floor and should be at least 5.7 square feet for opening.
The window must also be at least 60 cm high and 50 cm wide. If the window opening is less than 4% of the room’s usable area, it will be necessary to include adequate ventilation ducts
Another commented: “It’s giving a crypt.”
“I kind of love it! It’s really cozy! Is it at least warm?” wrote a third.
“Below freezing,” Ness replied.
Meanwhile, a fourth said: “I would just leave.”
“I hope you’re paying less than everyone else!!” claimed a fifth
Someone else added: “This costs more than my two-bedroom house with garden.”
