I lived here as a sophomore in a 4/2. The outside is a little bit ugly, but the inside dorms are more spacious than you'd expect. Theres small living room area and a kitchen. The desks in the private rooms are a lot longer and bigger, so that's cool. I really like it. My only gripe is that Nike is in the corner of campus and depending on your class you may take 15-20 min to walk there. I reccomend a bike to save yourself the hassle. However it is right next to the RWC so you have an excuse to go the the gym. There are also elevators so that is good. All in all, pretty satisfactory in my opinion.

Overall I really liked Nike for my first year dorm! The rooms were decently sized and the shared bathroom wasn't too bad. I feel like if you're living with the right people it's a really great experience! Due to COVID, the community lounge and kitchen were closed off so that really sucked not meeting anyone. Also location was kind of sucky since it seemed to separated from everything else on campus. The parking garage is a good walk away depending on your building which can suck when it's raining. 63 South is about a 10 minute walk depending on building. Walking to class can be a half hour walk so plan accordingly or use different transportation such as a bike or skateboard. The rooms themselves are pretty clean and spacious. The walls are ...

I lived in one of the apartments here and would definitely recommend! In the apartment you get your own room (4 total) and share a bathroom with one other person, as well as a kitchen and living room. Housekeeping comes weekly and it’s relatively quiet. A little far from some parts of campus, but not too bad.

It was typical dorm fare, kept relatively clean. The kitchen was three buildings away and shared with everyone in the community, which was super annoying. I'd do Neptune instead, they have kitchens on every floor. (and if you are in EXCEL, it's still a two minute walk to hours if you need it). The other thing was the walk to CB1/CB2 wasn't great either, I ended up using the scooters quite a bit because it was a 15-20 minute walk.

Nike is UCF’s bare-bones, basic college dorm room. Most rooms are two separate dorms, each sleeping 2, connecting to a shared bathroom. There is no kitchen in the building, just a shared preparation room on each floor. If you want to cook, you must walk across the cul-de-sac to the Nike community kitchen, which is usually busy. Walls are thin. Be prepared for issues with the elevator not working, and headaches with the Intellikey system. The parking lot is always full, so you can either wait for a spot downstairs, or drive to the 6th floor of the garage for an opening (not ideal for groceries, especially if you live on a higher floor). Most classes for freshmen are about a 10 minute walk, and it gets HOT in the fall. Bring a bike to cut dow...
