<li><p>Floors are tile in the rooms (I think the hallways are carpeted though, which doesn’t really matter to you anyway). I can’t remember the exact dimensions, sorry. Singles are probably roughly 2 and 1/2 twin beds wide at their widest, and if you decide to put a rug down, it won’t be able to be much longer than an extra long twin bed. </p></li>
<li><p>I believe that a standing lamp would be fine- they’re more concerned about people bringing in anything bed bugs could have infested. If you’re concerned just go with a desk lamp. The rooms are well lit, and as you’ll have a single, remember that you won’t have to worry about turning the lights off at a certain time or anything. </p></li>
<li><p>Yes, but generally it isn’t going to be a problem if you break them. Each single has a TON of outlets as well (There are at least 12, and I might have forgotten. I don’t remember any specifics as to the exact rules. </p></li>

<p>4.Beds in singles can have their heights adjusted to be about a meter or so off the ground. You’ll definitely want to take advantage of it for storage, as the closet space isn’t great. You can also take advantage of the space around the doors to the bathroom and the hallway to place tubs and boxes, as the space isn’t really usable for anything else, and there should still be plenty of room to put stuff up along the wall without placing it in your way of coming or going. I ultimately did not have to do this, as there was plenty of room under the bed. </p>
<p>5.If you plan on eating anything in your room, buy paper/plastic plates/bowls and plastic utensils. Washing stuff in the bathroom sink isn’t very easy. Also, plastic cups are great to have, though bottled water is a lot more handy then you would think. Water pitchers are great, but they won’t fit under the sinks, so you basically have to fill them in the shower, which is a pain(I recommend using extra meal swipes to buy bottled water from Outtakes). The tap water isn’t too bad, however, so you can get by on that pretty easily. Bring some kind of small vacuum- the rooms seem to get dusty very easily- and try to vacuum your rug regularly, as the dust that can build up on it is terrible. </p>
<p>And bring posters of some kind. The walls seem to be barren without them. You don’t need to plaster every surface with them, but just have a few to fill in the blankness.</p>
