Thoreau is your standard low rise. The rooms are all z rooms which I didn’t prefer but some people really like them. The bathrooms were also pretty disgusting. The environment is loud so if you prefer a quieter atmosphere this won’t be the place for you. Frequently smelled of weed and met some of the most obnoxious people while living here. The trash room on the second floor was nice and easy to get to and it is very close to Hamp. Has a pretty small laundry room but there’s still a good amount of washers and dryers. The RSD is here which was a nice feature if I wanted to get a package late at night.

Not great but could be worse. Better than Kennedy. All Z rooms. 2nd floor reeks of weed every weekend. Not all inhabitants are potty trained.
