    Pinnacle Hall

    based on 1 review

    "I love my Pinnacle dorm. It’s a single so I’m in there by myself but it’s the size of a double dorm so I have a bunch of space. I love that it’s just me so I have my peace and quiet." - 4 years ago

    Magnolia Apartments

    based on 3 reviews

    "I lived in the village last year and it is very different than magnolia. The village was in the center of all the action while magnolia is very secluded and quiet. It is very hard to meet people in magnolia. The only positives that I found living in magnolia were the single room which I didn’t have in the village and the closeness to my classes which was basically useless due to COVID and all online classes. If you wanna be left alone magnolia is the place for you." - 4 years ago

    Endeavor Hall

    based on 2 reviews

    "Pros:
    Pretty good location being in the village, you are a 5 minute walk from the on-campus publix and even closer to The Hub (the dining hall in the village).

    Walls are made of drywall and not concrete which makes the room feel a lot more comfortable

    Air conditioning never failed for me and my roomate however it did ONCE for a friend but was fixed within the same day

    10 Minute walk from the MSC (student center) where there is a foodcourt with chic fila, panda express, papa johns, subway, etc.

    Communal Kitchen on the first floor with a microwave, stove, refridgerator which is emptied weekly, and an oven.

    Cons:
    If you get a traditional dorm and not a suite the bathrooms are not great, though they are cleaned daily during the week, the bathrooms are not cleaned over the weekend. Went to the bathroom many times to see the bathroom in a wreck and would have to wait until moday for it to be clean again.

    Bathroom water pressure is fairly weak.

    Drywall rips very easily, becareful when sticking things to the wall and be prepared to have to repaint at the end of the year.

    Elevators did break down, about once a week or so but would be fixed within the same day, the longest someone has been stuck in one was maybe 20 minutes at most.


    TIP:
    The two rooms closest to the elevator and the two rooms at the corner of the building are larger, the ones near the elevator are a lot better designed with more space while the corner ones are bigger but not a great setup.

    Castor Hall

    based on 4 reviews

    "Castor is in a wonderful location that's close to the MSC and Argos, with Castor beach just a minute's walk away. The people in Castor are wonderful - most of my friends live in Castor, and from what I've seen the people are a lot friendlier here than in any other dorm. However, if you have to pay for Castor, I would recommend investing in an off-campus apartment, unless you are fine with community bathrooms. There's been a sugar ant problem both in the bathrooms and in the dorms. Thankfully, the insect exterminator that Castor called in (free of charge) was able to get rid of the dorm ants, but the bathrooms continue to have an issue." - 4 years ago
