Number 9

"No elevator which sucks, but you get used to living on the fourth floor. The last set of stairs is definitely the hardest. Rooms have carpet which is nice. They are also air conditioned. I thought the desk was big and had plenty of room to spread out. Closet was reasonably sized and there was space above it. There aren’t any doors on the closet so you might want curtains. Walls are cinder block. Raised beds so you store stuff underneath. Space between beds is about 5ish feet." - 4 years ago

Number 8

"First floor hallway always stunk but luckily my roommate and I were tidy so our room was always spacious and clean. Room size is decent, bathrooms are shared with the whole floor (very dirty on weekends), and the location of the building is not far from the dining hall/bus stops (5 min walk) overall 7/10 - would recommend. Also the air conditioning is a major plus" - 4 years ago

Number 7

"Lived in North Tower freshman on the 8th floor through the Honors Program. Location is fantastic- super close to the bus stop (you could see the student center bus stop from our window) and ~2 min walk to the library and the dining hall. Corner rooms are larger and the lounges had a seating area and mini kitchen. Bathrooms have 2 sinks and 2 stalls, and there were 2 bathrooms on the floor (one on each side). Laundry is in the basement and was never particularly busy when I went down. Elevators worked most of the time and came down at a decent speed. The primary drawback was the unbearable heat when we first moved in (dorms had pretty useless fans and no AC) and the extreme cold before they turned on the heating in the winter (we'd sleep with winter jackets on sometimes). Apart from the temperature situation, really enjoyed living in the Towers." - 1 year ago

Number 6

"A very standard college dorm room, but an amazing location. Close to everything and the bus system from college Ave is amazing. Bathrooms can get a little dirty at times, but that’s expected, it’s cleaned nearly everyday. " - 2 years ago

Number 5

"Gibbons is the most underrated residence hall, considering the massive rooms (if you happen to be on the higher floors), small but connected community, great scenery and nature all around, great lounge with an awesome cabin vibe, and best of all: a bus stop right at the residence hall. The location is great as it is very near to the dining hall, douglass student center, douglass library, and the college hall bus stop (for rexl/rexb)." - 8 months ago

Number 4

"Located on Cook-Douglass, this room is one of the nicer ones in the freshman residence halls. It has AC and heating, a large window, and tall ceilings. There’s enough space between the beds, which have adjustable heights. However, there’s no elevator, so if you’re on the fourth floor, you’ll have to climb three flights of stairs to get to your room. Also, Perry is quite far from the bus stops and the dining hall, so you’ll have to walk a bit to get there. Also, the communal bathrooms are cleaned every day, furniture is provided, and there is a study lounge on each floor." - 2 months ago

Number 2

"The honors college is hands down the best freshman experience you can have. Obviously the simple things about have new and decent size rooms, but also having generally clean bathrooms unless someone being annoying. Where the HC experience becomes even better is the lounges. Personally, The 4 North Lounge is a giant space for literally everyone to hang out. Many of my late night memories were made in the lounge around the HC. Going down to play pool or ping pong. Even setting up in the classrooms in the South Wing Classrooms to watch Star Wars. The honors college gives an A1 experience that literally makes you feel like royalty. In addition, if you have classes in the Academic Buildings are literally one second away." - 3 years ago
