How is the hostel facility at NIT Goa in terms of food, internet, and cleanliness?
According to some of my friends studying at NIT Goa, their hostel facilities are not that great in all terms be it food, internet, and cleanliness.
- No one can find good food at any hostel but it at least should be hygienic.
- The internet speed is also not that great and on top of that students use that for entertainment purposes.
- When it comes to cleanliness, It is even worse than the food and the internet.
- The hostel which NIT Goa provides in the final year is the worst. It is recommended that you stay outside rather than live in the hostels like the M.Tech students.
- The only thing you need to do to stay out of the hostels is to manage the transportation, and then you are good to go.
Hence, it is quite evident that it's not worth staying in the NIT Goa hostels and a student should prefer to stay out as paying guests or flats.
What is the hostel facility in NMIMS Bangalore?
The hostel facility at NMIMS Bangalore is not great. I have a friend at NMIMS who has many complaints about the facilities provided at the hostel.
Here is some information based on his experience at the institute.
- Hostel Fee: If you are going to the UG hostel the fees will be 180000 and food, room, transportation, laundry, and other house services are included.
- Food: The food offered in the hostel is moderate, nothing special, and the menu is repeated weekly. At times, food is the same during lunch and dinner.
- Rooms: The rooms are too packed and there is very little free space to move around. It barely fits two single beds with very little space to walk between them and has no ventilation. Fresh air or sunlight barely enters the rooms and the neighbors can see you through the window. Some of the rooms don’t even have curtains for privacy.
- Curfew: The hostel comes with a lot of restrictions and the curfew timing is 9 pm. In case of emergency or extreme situations, the hostel won’t let you out whatsoever. Even with the permission of the parents, they make you go through a lot of trouble just so you can leave after 9 pm or you enter after 9 pm. The hostel is in the outer skirts and also you have fewer transportation modes available at night. It is situated far from the main city and market thus making it difficult to reach if anything is needed urgently.
At the same price, you can get a better pg or private hostel.
Which is the best hostel in IIT Bombay and why?
My brother had the pleasure of staying at hostels 9, 16, and now 13 in chronological order. However, he claimed not one hostel had the complete facilities one expects in a hostel. I have described each hostel in a few pointers
Hostel 9
- Extremely small room difficult for even 2 people to share
- The best food in the entire institute is served in this hostel
- It has many facilities like a pool, a small footer field, basketball court, table tennis and makes your leisure time great
Hostel 16
- This hostel has some of the best rooms in the entire institute. The rooms are double occupancy but can easily be shared by more people.
- If you are lucky enough to be allotted the 6th floor or above, you can get a spectacular view of Hiranandani.
- The food is not very good
Hostel 13
- The room is usually for PG or DD students
- The rooms are single occupancy and are decked with decent facilities
- The food in the Mess is neither too good nor too bad.
- The hostel has a wide range of extracurricular facilities. There is a TV room that can accommodate around 70–80 people.
- This hostel is most coveted because of the spectacular view of the Powai lake and the Hiranandani it offers.
How are the hostels of Thapar University?
The Thapar University hostels are quite safe.
There is a zero tolerance policy towards ragging, indiscipline and illegal substances within the hostel premises. In-house laundry facilities are available at affordable charges. The mess food is good quality and hygienic. Moreover, each hostel is provided with good wifi connectivity and AC rooms. The fresher hostels have common washrooms.
You can opt for either four seater, three seater or two seater rooms according to your comfort. The new hostels are well built, and even the old ones like B,C,A are well maintained. All hostel rooms are spacious, even the four seater ones. But during summers, the hot weather and mosquitoes can cause some discomfort.
Any complaints regarding the amenities are resolved by the hostel authorities. Almost all machines in the gyms are in working condition. The TV room is used for watching cricket and football matches, and the reading room is a suitable place for quiet studies. The reading rooms are equipped with ACs. Each hostel has a night canteen from where you can get some snacks.
Overall, Thapar has good hostel facilities.
Do you think the NIT Calicut hostel is good?
One of my friends once shared his experiences considering the Hostel of NIT Calicut, whether it is good or bad or anything, but the student must be prepared to incident all kind of things at the time of staying in the hostel.
- There are 4 people in one room, specifically in the first year, second year, and third year. However, it is fine and can be accepted.
- The hostel rooms of NIT Calicut are prepared for 3 accommodations only, that in a room, 3 students can stay; there are 3 beds with proper spacing in the room, 3 cupboards, and charging points.
- My friend told me that the college administration might try to bring all the students very close to each other to increase unity. The reason behind this thinking is that 4 students are staying in one single room, although the accommodation is for 3 students in each room.
You might be given a basic crash course regarding the student's body language. This will help you to understand the language spoken by hostel guards and managers as they were from Kerala and speak in Malayalam. Thus, the students from North India and Andhrapradesh (Telegu) must be ready to face this issue in the hostel.
There is always an electricity problem is a hostel, and a student has to use their own mobile data to perform their academics and assignment. Because no electricity means no internet, no fan, no light, and this is very common in the hostel of NIT Calicut. Students may face 2 nights without electricity.
Which hostel does the IPM girls in IIM Indore stay?
I have a few friends from IIM Indore and I learned about the hostel accommodation, on-campus through them.
As mentioned by my friends, the girls from their first three IPM years are given to stay at a recently established Student Residence 10, also known as SR - 16. It is in front of the cricket stadium.
On the other hand, the girls from both IPM fourth and fifth years stay with the PGPs in the SR 11 - 14. The hostel is adjacent to the SR - 18, i.e. the IPM Boys Hostel.
How is life at Fergusson College Pune staying at the college hostel for a girl graduation?
The hostel accommodation for girls at Fergusson College is decent. The hostel fees are nominal. It is closest to the college. Hostel rooms are fine, but not in great condition. Mess food isn’t too good. There are sometimes water problems.
The hostel rules are strict. Students need to enter the hostel by 8 pm. On Sundays, the end time is 8:30 pm.
What are some hostels or PGs near Sharda University, Greater Noida?
If you don't want to stay at the campus hostel there are some good hostels and PGs near Sharda University. You can choose them based on your requirements. I will suggest you stay in Gamma-I or Beta-I. These two sectors are very close to Sharda University.
- Gamma-I has the biggest market Jagat farm of greater Noida. You can find anything easily there.
- Beta-I is located opposite of Gamma-I.
- Living at any of these two sectors will be great as you can easily get direct auto rickshaws to Sharda University. The fare is also quite cheap.
- If you are unable to get into these two sectors you can go for Alpha-I. This sector is also well connected.
My suggestion is to stay in any of these three sectors I mentioned above. Don't stay at PGs. Most of the PGs near the college are not that good. The only good hostel near the college is the GN hostel.
