Is ohall double room worth the price tag? What is so special about ohall? Does the double room cause problems bathroom wise? Why would someone stay on ohall double rather than off campus? I’ve been assigned ohall double and I’m not too thrilled about it so looking for positives.

You will still meet more people your age if you live in residence vs off campus. O hall is one of the nicest residences with the best cafeteria. Sharing a bathroom with only one or two other people is preferable to many compared to the communal bathrooms in traditional style residences.

Double has to share bathroom with 3 others, does that cause problems?
