Number 5

"these dorms are very old and have had lots of matinence issues in my time here. my radiator has not worked ever, despite submitting multiple work orders. the bathrooms are gross and theres a bunch of hair stuck in the shower drains that never seems to be cleaned out." - 1 year ago

"I had one roommate and lived up on the 10th floor. Loved the view (we were on the city side) and the room had enough space for us and all our belongings without feeling crowded or empty. Communal bathrooms on each floor which I didn’t love because there were only two toilets and one sink (and a urinal which was not helpful considering it was a girls’ bathroom) (lifehack: the lobby bathroom is usually empty and has many stalls). The showers kind of grossed me out but I’m a germaphobe and I never had to wait in line to shower so that’s one upside. Each dorm room has it’s own sink so that is convenient for getting ready without having to go into the bathroom. Each room also comes with a microwave and mini fridge which was perfect for someone like me who mostly ate at the dining hall (which Camp is close to) but who had leftovers and wanted snacks and a few frozen meals on hand. The Cave convenience store is in the basement and is open late—loved it. Campion is a big dorm building so it always felt lively, only downside to that is that you can hear your neighbors really easily (thin walls) and there was often a long wait for elevators during busier class times. It gets hot in the dorms during early fall and late spring so leave your windows open while you’re out or you’ll come back to a sauna cuz there’s no AC. I liked the vibe though and tbh kind of miss it." - 4 years ago

"Rooms are single rooms so you get your own space and bathroom with shared kitchens. Problem is that the building itself needs a lot of work as it was built really quickly. However, its a good option if you want your own space away from the usual dorms. It's a fun little community and is still in a convenient area as it is only one block from campus." - 4 years ago

"I lived in an Econ-Triple my freshman year which is a very cramped space that is the size of a traditional double dorm in Bellarmine but for 3 people! There’s limited wall space for decorations and not a ton of floor space for walking. However, I’ve stuffed 10 plus people in there in semi-comfortable conditions. It is cheaper than a double and allows you to meet cool more people as a freshman. If you don’t like your roommates close quarters may be super awkward. The bathrooms are the best of any dorm hall and the location is close to classes, and the student center which is awesome during the cold winter months. The kitchen sucks because it’s in the same room as the laundry machines." - 4 years ago

Number 1

"I lived in a townhouse single unit (meaning I had one roommate) which was great because we each had our own rooms, we shared a private bathroom, we had a full kitchen, and the fact that we had an upstairs and a downstairs made it feel like a proper house. I especially liked this because if roomie wanted people over and I needed to study, everyone could socialize downstairs in the living room and I could have quiet and space up in my room. Lots more sound insulation than the dorms, so we rarely heard our neighbors and it was easier to have fun and still avoid noise complaints and trouble with RAs. Bedrooms in the townhouse were big. No elevator though, which is a downside when moving in or out." - 4 years ago
