Yes it HAS A/C, but does it actually work? No. Do the dryers work either? No. Is it clean overall? No.
I liked how close it was to everything. Less than 10 minute walk to the student parking lot, next to 3 dining spots, and close to Lane Stadium and Center St. for game days. Some cons are that the bathroom had issues/was dirty and the room was a decent size. My roommate and I made it work though so highly recommend.
I really liked this dorm! People give it a bad rep because it’s a little on the smaller side compared to other forms in campus, but it was a perfect size for my roommate and I. West AJ when I lived there had a bunch of lounges for studying, full kitchen on the 6th floor, free laundry on some days, a movie theater, and a huge lounge area with pool and Foosball tables. We had AC and the communal bathrooms were always clean when I used them! Here’s a dorm tour of the room that I had: https://youtu.be/3CovbrWaSWo
Nice dorm with air conditioning, not one of the "party" dorms like Slusher or Pritchard. Has good sized lounges and a large common area on the first and second floors of the connection between East and West AJ. Stairwell doors to the outside cannot be opened from outside.
Close to food. hot on upper floors in the winter. foosball table, ping pong table, vending machines, and kitchen are on the 6th floor, thank me later.
