Great place to stay at. Very modern and pretty but the only bad thing is that your space is very small.

The dorm is pretty new with really nice bathrooms. The cons are the rooms are pretty small for two people, and the amount of storage is limited. But the bathrooms are clean and are cleaned daily.

Super nice and the facilities are top notch. Not much social life in the dorm, but the lounge and gym are nice amenities.

The facilities are incredibly nice. Definitely does not give “college dorm” vibes (feels more like a hotel) which is a bit of a con.

pros: new, clean, next to the dining hall
cons: rooms are small for 2-3 people, kinda socially dead.

Nice facilities with a scheduled bathroom cleaning each week. RAs are relatively chill and nice. Much newer and nicer compared to other dorms with the advantage of being very close to Glasgow.

This is the newest dormitory on campus, but it's not much better. You need to share bathrooms and toilets with one floor. And share your room. There are good utilities, so don't live on campus if you can help it.

Dundee tends to be not as social as other dorms, for some reason we aren't allowed to keep the doors propped open (and even if we were, it would be hard since they're pretty heavy) so that may contribute to the anti-social aspect. The room has air conditioning and a heater system through, which is so convenient as most of the other dorms do not have that. Sleeping in other dorms (like AI) can be a nightmare... SUPER COLD after being able to sleep in a nice heated room during the winter. I also like that there is a water filling station right down the hall, unlike in other dorms where it is super far.
