Best Stony Brook Dorms

"Public lounge areas are nice and clean. The suites are nice, but small. The elevator at Eisenhower seems a bit outdated because doors take a long time to close and shakes sometimes."

"My room is a double so I share it with a roommate. The room is surprisingly spacious, and the window is big. My suite has a balcony which is nice. "

"Lauterbur is pretty great to live in. Rooms are usually suites of 6 people where there's 3 doubles. The sinks are in the hallway but its pretty annoying that the toilet and shower are in separate rooms. The rooms are dorm sized as usual but there's pretty good natural light that comes into the room. The location is great because West Side Dining is right in front of you and the SAC/center of campus is not far from there either. The bus stop is also right in front of the building. Overall great place to live."

"The location is great as it's very close to West Dining, it's within a 10 min walk to the main buildings of the campus, and a lot of the buses stop right in front of the building. The bedrooms are a bit small. The living rooms in the suites are a nice size. The bathroom I think is the best part as it's great for multiple people. The lounges are a little bit depressing, but maybe because the building is quite old. There is also an elevator in the building. Not sure about the differences between all the buildings in the Kelly community though."

"It's one of the newer dorms, so it's definitely cleaner than the older buildings. There's great sun exposure and I like how the shower and toilet are in separate rooms with the sinks in the hallway. Kind of far from the rec center though, but at least west dining is across the street. I had some bad stink bug and lady bug infestations back in the spring semester though."
