The common areas, such as the movie and game rooms, provided a fantastic atmosphere for socializing, while the spacious 4-bed female dorm let in lots of natural light, making it feel very welcoming. Plus, the location couldn't be better—everything is within walking distance, and the free pasta and other pantry staples in the kitchen added a thoughtful touch.
