QUAD in West

I was just wondering if anyone knows how big/comfortable the living situation is for a quad in west (claflin).
Thanks

They're pretty big. I mean clearly the biggest rooms in the building. It's still four heads though and not exactly luxurious or spacious.

I can only speak for the quads in Warren, which I assume are similar to those in West. They were very tight so make sure you organize things in such a way as to maximize space. Typically, there is a set of bunk beds with 2 lofted beds, so that the desks and dressers can fit underneath them. This can save quite a bit of space because moving around the room may become difficult unless lots of things are under the beds. Just think it out well, and make the most out of the space you get and it can be a very livable situation.

They're decent. Better than the regular rooms, but depending on how you configure everything, you might not have much room.

Some of my friends had a quad in Claflin last year. The way they had the furniture arranged, it was pretty spacious (at least, it seemed enormous compared to my double), even without any bunked beds. The only issue seemed to be that it was harder to ever have privacy, but even that was never really a big deal for them.

Oh I second that. West's doubles are soooo small. Make sure to keep it neat and it will seem a bit bigger.

I got the impression that the doubles in West were larger than ones in Warren. False?

I was never in Warren, so I have no idea, but I'd assume they're equally small.
