Is Greenwich Hall the best dorm at NYU?

Students rated Greenwich Hall a 4.4/5 stars. Here's what they had to say.

I lived in a quad made up of two doubles. Room sizes and shapes can vary a lot in this dorm- my room was pretty small, but others were bigger. Not a huge issue if you like your roommates. Pros include: hardwood floors, housekeeping service for common area/bathroom, lovely, quiet West Village neighborhood, quick walk to the Hudson, and pretty close proximity to campus. People think it's far but it's really only about a 10 min walk to the west end of WSP. Other than the smallish room, my only con was the distance to dining halls (super far from Palladium). But I really liked Greenwich!

I lived in Greenwich hall my sophomore year Spring semester. Greenwich is super lovely in the sense that it feels like a real old-school apartment and less like a dorm room. Very nice hardwood floors throughout, great bathroom, and massive kitchen (if you love cooking, Greenwich is great for that). I had a single in a 3-person suite where the other room was a double. Depending on the room/suite there's a lot of variety, but our room was definitely on the cozier side. Everyone thinks the walk is really long but it's really 10-15mins max, and there's a shuttle that goes solely to Greenwich that takes about 15mins to campus as well that's quite frequent or at convenient class times. And as a sophomore, I wasn't required to have a meal plan in Greenwich hall, so I would definitely recommend if you have the option to not use a meal plan since the dining halls are very far away. And, it's the only NYU dorm room with a free cleaning service (that you don't pay extra for in housing costs, it's just because of how the building was zoned) for your bathroom/common spaces. The only downsides were half the time the elevators didn't work, and that in the shower the water pressure was almost too high that it was sometimes uncomfortable. But other than that I would definitely dorm at Greenwich hall again! I think the best fit for Greenwich residents is loving to cook/bake most of your meals, wanting to feel like you're in a nice small NYC apartment, and enjoying a bit of a walk to campus.
