Douglas Apartments Reviews

UC San Diego Warren College

Reviews Summary

Douglas Apartments offer a convenient location in Warren, close to Canyon Vista and within reasonable distance of Equality Lane cul-de-sac. The apartment layout features separate rooms for the shower and toilet, providing more privacy compared to traditional shared bathrooms, although some students note that the facilities are small and somewhat outdated. The rooms vary in size, with doubles being described as spacious enough for personal belongings, while triples can feel cramped. The living room common areas are a notable highlight, providing generous space that comfortably accommodates several people. In addition to ample storage, the kitchen is equipped with a large refrigerator and electric stove tops, though some find the temperature of the fridge a bit too cold. Cleaning services including weekly surface wipes and infinite toilet paper ensure a maintained living environment. While on-campus convenience is appreciated, some students feel the cost does not fully justify the amenities compared to off-campus options.

Location is pretty nice considering that it is in Warren-- pretty close from CV and not too far from the equality lane cul de sac.
Bathrooms are separated in two rooms: one with shower the other with a toilet, pretty private, although it is quite old and small.
Rooms are pretty small as a double and it is impossible to walk in for a triple room.
Common room space is pretty big and the kitchen is not bad with a large fridge.
A lot of storage spaces.

Expensive and only benefit as opposed to off campus housing is that you dont need to commute to school. you pay more for worse kitchen, bathroom, and food.

Lived in a Douglas double. Super close to canyon vista, super spacious living room. The room had enough space for me to put all my random stuff. I just wished my bed is not right underneath the window :/ the window is so dusty. The toilet and the shower are separated so it’s better than one bathroom.

Had a triple as a Freshman in Douglas and currently have a double as a Sophomore in Brennan. Common area is great, can fit up to 8 comfortably and 14 if really pushing the limit. You get infinite toilet paper, and surfaces get wiped down weekly. The kitchen has electric stove tops and a refrigerator that keeps things possibly too cold. There's a lot of closet space in the common room, not as much in the bedrooms. Comes pretty clean in my opinion.

Overall, the Douglas apartment was a decent size. One of the rooms are larger and built to be a triple, but the other was built to be a double and converted into a triple. Unfortunately, I was in the smaller room. It was a little cramped, but the fact that I was in an apartment with plenty of living room and kitchen space made it tolerable. I love that the toilet and shower have their own room so you don’t have to wait for someone to get out of the bathroom.
