Ensuite Room

An ensuite room has its own private bathroom. A flat or cluster is typically made up of 4-8 ensuite rooms, with each flat sharing a living room and kitchen. This is the most popular choice of room, cheaper than a studio but with its own bathroom.

Studio 

A studio is a single room with a bed, desk, wardrobe, bathroom and kitchen. Unlike the ensuite rooms each studio contains its own kitchen, so it is comparatively more expensive. Suitable for 1-2 people only.
