Myles Standish Hall offers a blend of modern convenience and suite-style living ideal for upperclassmen at Boston University. Newly renovated, the dorm features air-conditioned rooms with varying sizes, private bathrooms, and big windows letting in natural light. Although it lacks suite common areas, the building includes a communal kitchen, multiple study lounges, and a game room. Located on the east side of campus near Kenmore Square, it’s a bit far from some classes but close to Questrom and public transit. Despite its quieter atmosphere, which might not appeal to freshmen, Myles Standish Hall remains a top choice for those who appreciate its cleanliness, amenities like in-building laundry and mailroom, and the social events like free food Fridays hosted in the building.

Absolutely worth it! Myles has AC, shared kitchen and many more amazing installations in the building. The room is cool, I am in a double of a 4 persons suite. Had great time with my friends there. Even though you need to clean your own bathroom but the whole place is just amazing.

Super close to the Kenmore T stop and Questrom. The rooms are really clean and a good size. The lounges on each floor are super useful for group events as well!

Currently living here as a junior at BU, unfortunately got stuck in the smallest room in a suite with my best friends, but at least theres that. We currently are in an 8 person suite with 3 doubles and 2 singles. Myles is great but on the very far east side of campus so if you dont have class in Que...

Loved living in Myles. It's super nice and would especially recommend if you can live in a suite with your friends. Every week they do popcorn or ice cream Fridays and there's usually a lot of free food events, which is nice. Location is not the best, but the BU bus comes right to the dorm and it's ...

The only critique I would say is I wish they had a designated common room for each suite with a seating area and I would've loved if this dorm ha...

Since I transferred to BU, I have been living in Myles. I love the suite-style experience mainly because I don't have to worry about sharing a bathroom with a dozen other people. Also, the dorms themselves are much newer compared to most of East Campus and come with semi-working air conditioners (pe...

The building is newly renovated and very nice. Size of the singles varies a bit; mine was big enough but my suitmate’s was definitely bigger. The AC couldn’t be lowered below 72, so I usually kept the windows open. No pest problems. Saw a single spider in my entire year living here. Otherwise, t...

Big windows and quiet living experience. Wouldn't recommend to freshmen who want a social experience, but to upper class men who already have friends and want a nice place to go back to.
