I live here now and I really love Holland! It wasn't on my list at all when picking housing, but I'm really happy here.

There’s no A/C in Holland Hall. Summer is absolutely brutal. Bring more than one fan if you’re just moving in. My roommate and I didn’t sleep with sheets on the bed until mid-October I’d say. The bathrooms are gross, the lounge is never very clean, and the laundry room is big but most of the washers...
