Slusher Hall Reviews
Virginia Tech
Reviews Summary
Slusher Hall offers a quintessential college dorm experience with a vibrant social atmosphere and prime location at 201 Ag Quad Lane. Known for its unique charm, it's a place where fun and camaraderie flourish among residents. While it's not a luxury residence, students appreciate the lively community and close proximity to the gourmet dining halls of D2, West End, and Owens. The building's design is an architectural statement by engineers from Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University. The 12th-floor penthouse suites, akin to Manhattan's Upper East Side living, boast stunning mountain views and access to a rooftop pool. Each floor accommodates a single gender, fostering comfort and social interaction. Be prepared for the lack of air conditioning by bringing fans, as well as communal bathrooms that may require adjustments for taller students. Despite occasional fire alarms and maintenance quirks, students grow to love Slusher Hall, embracing its idiosyncrasies and the tight-knit community they form.

This place slaps. Fire alarms wake me up at 3am for among us challenge. Luckily there is no ac in this building. That way no one can vent. Exterior is an astonishing work of art. Designed by some of the top engineers at the prestigious Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University. This building, given the address 201 Ag Quad Lane, is most certainly one of the best buildings on this fine campus. Located near the gourmet dining halls D2, West End, and Owens, this building is prime real estate. If you are an incoming freshman, I highly recommend this residence halls. I recommend selecting a 12th floor penthouse suite in the tower because you can get a beautiful view of the mountains and you get access to the pool on the on the roof. Liv...

You have to know what you’re getting yourself into. It’s a classic dorm experience which I’m thankful I had. It’s social and fun but not insane at all hours like some dorms. Each floor is 1 gender so you can be comfortable while still being close to meet others! Once you organize your room/furniture the small size is fine. The communal bathrooms aren’t bad as long as your hallmates have common respect.

The lack of a/c only matters for September, but everybody at least one large fan to put in the window and a small one for your desk. The bathrooms are not ideal, I'm pretty tall and the shower head was so low I was doing full squats to wash my hair. But everyone in your hall goes through the same things as you, and if you want to get your steps in the stairs will get you working. Elevators get repaired much more quickly than shorter buildings.

It not that bad for dorm living. I loved it here and I wouldn't've wanted to live anywhere else. You grow to appreciate it.
