My daughter was in Rubin. She loved it there. Great building on a great street in a beautiful location, cllose to campus, but not as close as Hayden, Weinstein or Goddard.
No AC but has a dining hall. It is not rundown at all. Hayden is right on the square on Macdougal St, a very historic, happening street and close to the excitement of Greenwich Village, lots of restaurants, shops right down the road. It has a dining hall and also has vegetarian/vegan entrees for those who follow. I don’t know about the attitude there but I haven’t heard that. My recommendation, if you are new to NYC, is to stick close to campus around Washington Square. Very well lit and very active all hour of the day and night. Once you leave freshman year, you will be further away from campus and will never have that opportunity to be right in the heart of thing.
