Best Brown University dorms

"The location is PRIME. you’re close to pretty much everything (main green, ruth simmons quad, scili, ratty, biomed etc.). the rooms are really spacious, carpeted, and have “walk-in” closets which i considered an upgrade from the external wardrobes in my freshman dorm. the kitchen wasn’t as great and there wasn’t really a common space or lounge (just a sofa in the kitchen..lmao), but that was a small price to pay for the location and size of the room. it was a beautiful place to live - my favorite place i’ve lived of all my 4 years at brown!" - 4 years ago

"Lived 3rd floor of Wayland Hall my Freshman year (rare). The room is extremely spacious. Comes with a fridge, microwave, and air purifier (Covid). There are two closet spaces as it is a double. The location is the best part about Wayland, only <1 minute walk from the main green and most classes. The bathroom is shared with your floor with about 3 stalls, sinks, and showers. Highly recommend for sophomores, but don't expect to get it freshman year." - 2 years ago

"Pros:
-sinks in the room
-relatively large rooms
-large closets (for most of the rooms)
-Andrews Commons (arguably the best dining hall) is right below the Andrews Hall, and it's open until 12 AM
-great study space on the first floor of the dorm
-very close to the gym (2 minute walk)
-very close to CVS, Insomnia Cookies
-smaller study spaces on each floor
-elevators
-communal kitchen on basement floor
-supposedly has AC but I tried it and the room didn't feel cooler

Cons:
-One of the northernmost dorms (~10 minute walk to libraries)
-communal bathroom
-some rooms were meant for 2 occupants but were turned into an "emergency triple" and thus were very cramped" - 4 years ago

"219 Bowen Street is used by Donovan House, a sub-free community. The house is awesome, really like living in an old mansion with 17 cool people. You need to apply to live here through the Donovan House application, but the community is worth it!" - 4 years ago

"Absolutely marvelous. If you can get past the ugliness of the cinderblock walls, the people inside will delight you." - 4 years ago
