A dorm room experience...clean, quiet and basic. Bed is very firm with shared common area with kitchen/fridge and TV. Emphasis on water conservation means shower with low pressure.

A bit far from downtown but Uber and bus accessible; we arrived during the summer break and long weekend so there were no on campus food providers but overall safe, quiet, great value and beautiful nature-outdoor scenery for daily walking
