I never lived-in, but our house only had 5 bedrooms. I did spend a lot of time at the house, just hanging out and cooking dinner, but for me, it would have been not so good for my studying. I'm a bit of a monastic when it comes to studying...in grad school and in undergrad I had to lock myself in my room to work and I wouldn't come out. I had to cut myself off from all distractions (unplugging the internet and my phone) to get quality studying done.
Also, as a studio art student, I had to spend some ridiculous hours in the art building, which made me not a good housemate. While I wasn't coming home drunk at 2 am, I was stumbling around with a massive portfolio and a huge camera bag.
I lived in dorms my first two years, also when I lived in Ireland, then in suites my last year, then in dorms during the first 3/4 of grad school and then in an apartment with a friend. Out of all of those situations (which were a struggle in all sorts of ways), the worst was the grad apartment with a "friend". We are no longer so.
