Best Binghamton University - SUNY Dorms

"Awful location, awful dining hall, everyone comes here to smoke and there are fire drills almost every day. "

"Living in Hinman was great!! It really is the friendliest community and having a common room to hangout in was so useful. Everyone rags on it for being the oldest but honestly I didn’t mind. The rooms aren’t the biggest but I didn’t feel cramped either. It’s the closest to lecture hall so I never worried about being late, and I had a convenient place to hang between classes."

"Lived here my freshman and sophomore year! It was a great time and the sunsets were really beautiful in the open area. Make use of the hammocks on the lawn and know when to relax and play :)"

"Great dorm overall, although suites are a bit too cramped. Would not recommend living here for more than a year because you will get fat going to C4 everyday."

"There is a lot of space no matter what type of room you get. If you live in a suite with two doubles, and a single- there is a decent sized common room with a sink, and where you can even place a fridge or shoe racks. However, it’s not really a space to hang out with friends, but a nice space to walk in and out. There are two bathrooms in every suite, and bathrooms get cleaned weekly. The Digman building is also a part of the Dickinson Community, the most recently renovated dorms. Also, the Digman building is closest to the Union, and Lecture Hall. This location makes it easiest to maneuver around campus because of how close it is to places. Additionally, I know the doubles and triples offered here are super nice, even though it may be smaller than a suite sized double and the sharing of a small space. There are closed 3 study lounges as well on each floor which is very convenient if you want to get out of you dorm or study as well. The only con to the Digman building is that the entire Dickinson community is very closed off with one another. For example, because of the well spacing between dorms, people often keep to themselves, and it’s harder to get to know others compared to other housing communities like Hinman, and College In The Woods. The price for a Dickinson Digman dorm is also the highest compared to all dorms; I believe $200 more per semester compared to other places. "
