Kronshage Residence Hall UW Madison Reviews

Cons: There is a high chance that you will not get laundry in your hall. The shower rarely gives hot water. Food and classes are quite a distance from here and the building itself is very old.

Single sex floors. You get lucky and get cool floor mates or you get screwed. Close to dining halls, far from everything else. Hot in summer, hot in winter. Like seriously boiling in winter.

Kronshage is really 8 buildings. Depends on the building the amenities you get. Some have a kitchen, while others have laundry, except Conrad and Showerman, which have both and a computer lab. I lived in Showerman, and other than the weak showers, the location was very scenic and decently close for ... See more
