I arrived to find that air conditioning did not exist in the building. The room was 27 Celsius. A fan could be supplied but that would require a 20$ deposit. The solution was to pay another 45$ and move to the building with AC. This took time and energy when all I wanted to do was sleep. The person at the counter named Blessing was extremely helpful. Kudos to them.

The dorm room was very clean and quiet. We went to spend the weeeknd helping our son move into another dorm and watch some of the football practices. The grounds were well maintained. Very easy to get around.

Good price good location. No A/c or screens over windows. only 3 Shared bathrooms 2 w/ showers per floor. No hot water at night or in kitchen located on each floor. Hall floors never swept or moped in over a month - only bathrooms. In room dusty inappropriate ventilation system left running constantly all summer - should be cleaned during summers.

It’s a university dorm with few amenities. Read reviews! We took a fan and a Kerig coffee maker- thank goodness because it was a hot night. Nice little kitchen area with microwave and full fridge with freezer. Exactly what we expected. Check in area not well marked but staff were very friendly. We are both alumni so it was fun to come back!
