Are each person's res hall closet and drawer (one?) bigger than a bread box?
Quote:
3 standard drawers per person.
The 3 drawers are supplied for the residential plaza. Since hiker is living in a residential hall, he/she will have one narrow closet accompanied with a mini-closet with 5-6 tiny drawers. (assuming hiker is in a triple and does not choose the bed with the desk underneath)

You get ONE closet/dresser under the loft bed. It is intended to fit all your clothing items. I can't approximate the exact size; the size is only a problem for girls. There are no drawers, just a rack on top for clothes. If you choose this, you might want to buy the equipment that separates your clothes (can be foudn at Bed Bath, Ikea, other related places for probably $20-25 or less). The height is the displacement between the floor and the bottom of the raised bed.

They are the same as the ones in the plaza, if you are juxtaposing the closets obtained from the same situation (electing to sleep on loft bed).

Hope this helps.

Can people who live in doubles loft each bed to the level of those single-loft beds in the triple rooms? If so, is it possible to easily do the lofting without the assistance of the UCLA movers, thus saving money?

So, the person with the lofted bed and a closet with no drawers should bring something to put socks/shorts and other non-hangables? Maybe one of those stacked drawer things for one side of the closet? So we buy something that fits, I can guess how tall based on bed height, but how deep is the closet? Or maybe not to fit inside the closet, but just on the floor...

I have no idea why you would want to do this. UCLA will not assist you in movingi the beds, not even for a fee. Plus, it'd be difficult to acquire strong and stable blocks to support the bed at that height. The highest you can raise the bed is probably by a few feet, which is sufficient for common needs (if you want to place something underneath).

Yes. The depth of the closet is about that of the desk. Someone can give you exact measurements.

I'm thinking of buying a mini fridge, so, roughly how much floor space is there in a res hall triple, and how much room is there under the desk (rough height and width)?

Oh, and are the microwaves on the 1st floor of Dykstra?
