      @AbbyMendez  3 роки тому +1

      Thank you so much, i’m so happy hear! I haven’t had any problems really, they’re always clean and it’s nice not having to deal with keeping up with your own bathroom like suite style rooms have to. The only downside is just the inconvenience of having to get shoes and a mask on to leave you room to go, but there’s always a bathroom just a few doors down so it’s that much of an inconvenience.

    • @AbbyMendez
      @AbbyMendez  3 роки тому +1

      Aww thank you!! I'm so happy you enjoyed it! Yeah East and West are basically the same. The rooms look basically identical, there is no big difference between the two. I am biased and think West is better because it is connected to the main Jester center where the dining hall is and East you have to walk outside for like 30 seconds to get to the Jester Center, so it's definitely not a big deal, both are really great places!

    @appreciationcomments1579 3 роки тому +1

    Hey! I loved the video, it was super informative and you have a great space! Im an incoming male freshman and Im not sure whether to stay in Jester West or East. I have heard Jester West is more social (which is nice), has connected food, and is the bigger dorm whereas Jester East is quieter, further from food, however doesn't have the hot water problems and long elevator wait times that jester West has in the upper floors. Could you tell me more about the differences between West and East and which one you would recommend?

    • @AbbyMendez
      @AbbyMendez  3 роки тому +1

      Hey! Thank you so much! I honestly would recommend either of them! I wouldn't stress either way. Both West and East are very similar. Besides the differences you listed about East being slightly further from food that's really the only difference and it's not much of an issue. There are very few differences between the two. Both of them are about equally social, I think it's most likely just rumors about west being more social but it really depends on the people who stay there that year. Whichever you choose you will have a good experience in the dorms either way! Hope this helps, let me know if you have more questions.

    • @AbbyMendez
      @AbbyMendez  2 роки тому +1

      I was on the 3rd floor. It was perfect for me because at least i had somewhat of a view and it’s easy-ish to go up and down 3 flights, i’d say floors 2-5 would be best so that the stairs would be bearable because sometimes the elevators can take a really long time if you’re on high up floors.
