I lived in a Camino quad during my sophomore year (4 bed 2 bath), and honestly it was really nice and I didn't have too many issues.

Camino Del Sol 4bedrooms/4.5bathrooms. Pros: You get an entire room and bathroom to yourself. You have privacy for yourself and if you want to bring a friend over. The lodge let’s you print for free.

Parking is the only downside, as CDS doesn't have a parking lot or structure and you have to park at the ARC if you have a car. In all, yes, it's relatively pricey (Can't really escape that in Irvine). But honestly, I think i...
