Sounds like a sweet deal, except I don't know why they are regulating your local calls?

Thanks. |
I was supposed to live in the brand new dorm my freshman year at USC. However, it wasn't built the first semester so I ended up living in the Radisson along with I believe 5 other floors(?) of people. It was awesome except that I had to walk a little bit off of campus to get to it and that was kind of scary alone at 3oclock in the morning!! The best thing about living in the Radisson was that I would sometimes order room service in the morning if I wasn't feeling so good from the night before, or if I was sick!! The only thing I didn't like is that we didn't have internet access for a month or two, or PHONES!! So we had to pay a crapload to use the hotel phone....and I had gotten a new cell phone that got stuck in the mail during the whole September 11 thing....so I ended up paying quite a bit in phone charges!! The only other issue was that we couldn't leave our doors open or else hotel staff would get mad...who knows why!! But we did get HBO as well which was awesome!! OOOOH...and of course our OWN bathroom with a bathtub and everything!!!! I definitely enjoyed living there!!!!
Even though USC built that new dorm (PIRC for all of you SC ppl...located on the "darkside"of USC), last year and this year students have still been housed there because of the growing size of freshman classes. Are you living there for the entire year or just the semester? |
I'm actually really surpised an upscale property would take in floors of students. You have to realize the regular clientele pays hundreds of dollars to not hear college students making all kinds of noise (sorry, but it's the truth).

I'll be there for just the fall semester.
The hotel is about 3 blocks away from the dorm I would have been residing in, but it's still on campus. My school doesn't have a traditional campus in the sense that it is located around Boston Common. The classrooms, labs, residence halls, offices, student union, etc. are all located in various buildings around the city. Mainly, everything is centralized around the area by the theater discrict (Boylston and Tremont) and the Back Bay (Esplanade, etc.) area. The only standout thing that stinks about it is if the weather is ever really foul (I am talking about New England!) the T (aka the subway system in Boston) station outside the hotel is on the orange line and most of the rest of campus is on the green line...meaning I'd have to backtrack to a transfer station to get on the correct subway line. grrr....I'll probably be walking. |
