Dunham Fishbowls

So us future freshmen just a week ago got our housing assignments and I was assigned one of Dunham's one room quads, aka "the fishbowls." My room mates are awesome and I am very excited for next month, but I was wondering if any current or past students can give me some info on approximate size of these rooms and if they are great or... not so great. Are they really livable for four people?

Any input would be really wonderful. Thanks in advance!

they are HUGE, especially compared to the rest of dunham, however the trade off is you are right by the door, so it can be a little noisy, and it is more like one large room than 2 smaller rooms. my best friend lived in one last year and one of her roommates was on a completely different sleep schedule. unlike the two-room quads where you can avoid each other while sleeping, there isn't a lot of separation of space in the fishbowls. people love them though, and they are a really good place to host parties.
