Dear Sir or Madam:
I would like to bring my accommodation issues, created specifically
due to
my roommate
's irrational behaviours, to your immediate attention. I cannot concentrate on my studies and find it unbearable to live with such
a housemate. I am hoping that you allow me to shift into
another Change preposition
to
room
soon.
I have been living in a hostel with shared accommodation for the last
year. My previous roommate
was extremely cooperative and friendly. There was nothing he was not willing to solve together with
me as a roommate
. However
, the student I have been living with for the past two months is quite the opposite. He refuses to collaborate with me and doesn’t clean the room
. He has frequent visitors and they smoke in the room
. To make things worse, my roommate
has bought a television lately and likes to watch the television all the time with a high volume. Even after my cordial requests, he refuses to cooperate and I find it extremely tough to live with such
a roommate
and study properly.
I want to move out of this
room
as soon as possible and have a different roommate
. I would prefer a single room
with kitchen and bathroom facilities. If arranging a single room
is not possible, I would like any room
that is
peaceful.
I am looking forward to hearing from you soon.
Yours faithfully,
