How satisfied were you with your living arrangements? |
my dorm was Melon District-Marina. It was new and VERY NICE. I met nice people and we were provided cleaning service, which I really like but the cleaning staff sometimes tended to "accidentaly" take your possessions and you would have to go complain to the front desk. they usually never found what had been taken from you... the neighborbood was nice but you had to be careful at night because it could be dangerous. a lot of cabs were available and the location was near the main streets and main parts of the city. overall, it was a great place to live. <br /><br /> |
