This dorm is horrible, bathrooms always get out of service besides that, no hot water to shower, heater and A/C never works as it suppose, horrible smell and very dusty they charge a good money, just to send the students to go to shower some where else not fear, if I can give them -0 I will do it...

Lived here for my freshman year and it’s pretty bad. The fire alarms go off weekly, most of the time in the middle of the night and you must evacuate every single time, there’s no sign of them ever fixing the sensitive alarms, and based on other reviews this has been an issue for over a year now. Walls look like prison cells but you can still hear everything from neighbors. AC’s often have a dripping issue, but in my case the AC’s are so old they don’t even have the parts they need on standby to fix it and need to get them custom made, and instead had to seal the leak with flex seal, no wonder mold is an issue. Showers have an extremely hard time heating up unless you’re willing to waste gallons of water letting the water run for a while to maybe get a lukewarm shower. Laundry machines and dryers broken often or just filled with mud and rocks to the point it’s not usable. Ice machine has been broken for a while now and it’s been in the 80’s and 90’s outside. You’re not allowed to open any windows to help the tiny rooms air out. Paint chips off the walls, you have to go up a large hill to get anywhere on campus from this dorm, I can go on FOREVER. Do yourself a favor and stay away from this dorm, no matter how amazing the staff may be, the building just isn’t worth it without a renovation.
