Best NYU Dorms

"Best location next to Trader Joe’s, whole food, union square farmers market. Subway steps away. Excellent location and very clean"

"The walls are thin and noise travels but the dorm is in a great location and I really enjoyed my time there. Everyone was very helpful and kind."

"Lipton is all around amazing. You have a dining hall and are right in front of WSP. Classes are nearby so that’s also a major plus. There’s a commuter den that’s nice to hangout in as well. There’s a mediation room, dance room + music room. Overall, there’s a lot to love about Lipton. Some people are dirty and like to leave their mess behind for the janitors to clean up and that’s just rude in my opinion. But those kinds of people will be found at every dorm. I definitely recommend Lipton to incoming freshmen!"

"I lived in a double but had 2 other suitemates! Othmer offers traditional style (so like, no kitchen) and apartment style and I lived in the traditional style suite. Othmer is a new building and they did some other renovations the year after I moved out. It's also literally across the street from NYU's Brooklyn campus, so most times you were only 2 minutes away from the dining hall and classes."

"Had a double room with spacious bathroom! Very clean but the only problem was ventilation that we got fixed. Small kitchenette with low fridge / freezer storage capacity so have to grocery shop often. was on the 8th floor so the higher up the more the walls shake because it’s a skinny building."
