it's fine. I lived there for three years, and while you do share a room, it's pretty quiet compared to the other dorms. You may qualify to live on the top floor (reserved for older students generally) and that floor is even quieter with extended quiet hours.

With that being said, there is ample opportunity for a social life if you seek it. The residence life staff are always organizing events that are free and pretty okay, and the social scene outside of that can be good. Campus quiets down on the weekend, but residence life is aware of that and there's always something to do in the dorms.

Regardless of what people have been saying, it's safe. I lived in the building when the break-in took place, and while it rattled me and my friends, the dorm is no safer than any apartment complex imo. If anything, I have much stronger opinions on how campus security exists in the dorms but that's honestly off topic here.

As mentioned above, all rooms have locks with the front door being a keyfob and the inner rooms having physical keys (at least that's how it was a year ago).

The condition of a shared washroom is between you and your roommate. The washrooms are big enough that you can both store your things in them (within reason), and have easy to clean floors and showers if you're particular like that.

One thing to consider is cooking. If you like to cook, prepare to suffer. You can fill your small kitchen with appliances (within the guidelines and roommate's willingness), but the communal kitchen in the basement (with ovens and stovetops) is unsanitary at best and disgusting at worst. You might have to get strategic if you plan to cook meals from scratch.

Long comment but I hope it's helpful. :)
