What are the best dorms in America?

I'm starting to plan my college tours and I'd love to know which schools have the best dorms across the country. A comfy living space is a must for me. Any specific colleges I should check out?

There are several colleges known for their excellent dorms due to amenities, locations, and design. Here's a shortlist based on student reviews:

1. Washington University in St. Louis (WUSTL): This school has suites with their own bathrooms and shared living space. Plus, they have modern dorms like South 40 House, known for its modern design and amenities like a game room and food court.

2. Bryn Mawr College: Known for its gorgeous Gothic architecture and spacious dorm rooms. Each dorm has a common room where students can socialize and study together.

3. Stanford University: Stanford boasts high-end dorms like the one in Mirrielees House, where students can have their own kitchen and living room.

4. Pomona College: Their dorms offer a unique living experience with great amenities. Many rooms come with their own balconies and common spaces for socializing.

5. Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT): The Simmons Hall at MIT has gained attention for its unique architectural design. Most of the dorms at MIT also come with a kitchen.

6. Bowdoin College: For first-years, Bowdoin College has beautifully-renovated historic dorms with plenty of character. More than 90% of students live on campus, so the dorms have a vibrant community feel.

7. Rice University: The residential college system can be a huge plus, with each college having its own dining hall, public rooms, and dorms.

While these schools are memorable for their dorms, what makes a dorm "the best" can often vary from student to student. It would be beneficial to consider what's most important to you in a living space (size, suite-style, traditional hall-style, private bathrooms, etc.) when touring colleges. That way, you can ask specific questions about the housing options that will help you make a more informed decision about what dorm life is really like at each school.
