Does ISI Kolkata have air conditioned hostel rooms?

RD
Ronit Das Posted On : September 21st, 2021
B.Stat Statistics & Mathematics,Indian Statistical Institute (2018)

Well, whether the rooms are conditioned or not doesn’t matter as you are there to study and not relax. But, I can tell you that there is no such facility.

  • But if you're coming to ISI or any other good Indian institute, like IIT, IISc, BITS, etc. for AC hostel rooms, please restrict yourself from doing so.
  • No elite Indian institute provides AC rooms in UG. If you are so ardent about AC then you can get one at your own expense.

If you're searching for AC rooms, then you should opt for the college which gives you all kinds of things to cut your time and not a college that gives priority to academics, placements, research, etc.

If you want one there are multiple private colleges which provide you with AC rooms. There you can get all this and spend your time easily.

How are the hostel and mess at UIET Chandigarh?

SR
Sampriti Roy Posted On : May 21st, 2021
BE Computer Science Engineering, University Institute of Engineering and Technology, UIET Chandigarh

Panjab University has a total of 8 boy's hostels and 10 girl's hostels (including 1 NRI hostel). Hostels are assigned to the students based on their AIR or by category. These rooms are two-tiered and Rooms on a guest basis are also available.

Now, let's take a look at the current state of boy's hostels, starting with the best.

  • Hostel 8, in all respects, is the best in terms of distance from the college (roughly a 50-meter walk) and the majority of the hostilities are from UIET itself, with some students from the BDS and MBA departments. 
  • The food served in the mess is average, but it is better than that served in some other hostels. The only disadvantage of living here is that the main university (AC Joshi Library, StuC Food Point) is nearly 1.6 kilometers away. 
  • Hostel Nos. 1, 2, and 3 will be a pleasant journey for you here at PU. It has all the advantages that a hostel should have, such as being close to the market, the StuC, the AC Joshi Library, and the mess here is quite pleasant (one the finest in PU). The food is about as good as it gets at home. The only issue with these hostels is the huge distance from college, i.e. 2.2 km. 
  • The other hostels are all the same. As far as known, they are the average ones.

Bus and e-rickshaw services are also available there for transportation.

How are the IPM IIM Indore hostels?

PB
Praveen Singh Bakshi Posted On : January 2nd, 2023
Studied Indian Institute of Technology Jammu (Graduated 2021)

The hostels at IIM Indore keep changing over the years you spend in the college. Initially the first-year students are provided double occupancy rooms with the same gender. After the first year, single-occupancy rooms are made available 

The basic amenities include 

  • a fan
  • basic lighting
  • furniture for storage
  • study table

Only mattresses are provided while the rest of the bedding is to be arranged by the inmates only.

There are no attached bathrooms and about 5 to 8 rooms share one set of bathrooms which comprises two commodes, two bathrooms, and two wash basins. 

The hostels do not have washing machines, however, there is a laundromat, as well as the services of an on-campus washerman, are available for a nominal price. 

You are not allowed to bring your own electrical or electronic appliances like air coolers, refrigerators, individual TV sets, etc. You cannot bring your own vehicle also except for bicycles.

As far as the campus is concerned, classrooms are well-equipped and the campus has multiple mess and food joints, grocery store, medical center and medicine shop, fruits and vegetable store, washerman, barber, bank, post-office, ATMs, courier dispatch and delivery, photocopy and print shops, gyms and sports centers, and even two temples.

The lack of anything more than basic aims at facilitating a basic lifestyle at the hostel and not a lavish one.

How is IIM Indore hostel and classrooms?

RS
Rishi Sharma Posted On : January 9th, 2023
Studied at IIM Indore

The PGP Hostels at IIM Indore offer single rooms in separate blocks for boys and girls. Each room has a bed, a large wardrobe with a mirror, one or two chairs, a table, and plenty of storage shelf space. Washrooms are plentiful, but not on every floor. Rooms also have LAN ports. Daily cleaning of the rooms is performed.

Fans are adequate because the weather is pleasant during the monsoons and very cold during the winter. Views of the campus are an added bonus depending on the location of the room.

The classrooms at IIM Indore are both large and air-conditioned. They typically seat 75 to 80 students. Classrooms are outfitted with speakers and biometric attendance systems in addition to the standard blackboard and projector system.

How are first year hostels at MNIT Jaipur?

SG
Souvick Gupta Posted On : October 9th, 2023
MNIT Jaipur

The hostel facilities for the first-year students at MNIT Jaipur are as per most students' expectations. The hostels allotted to the first-year students are 

  • Hostel 7
  • Hostel 1 and 2
  • Hostel 6

My brother was in Hostel 7 so my knowledge is limited to that hostel only. According to his personal experience, Hostel 7 is the best for first-year students. This hostel also serves the best food in comparison to other hostels offering the institute. The rooms are spacious and students have access to wifi facilities. Other hostels have poor Internet connections.

The hostel rooms of Hostel 7 are well-painted and with food flooring. It also has its own garden which is a great place to get a breath of fresh air. The best canteen of Hostel 4 is located right in front of Hostel 7 so you can get tasty food even past midnight. 

Overall, MNIT Jaipur offers a great hostel life for its first-year students.

How good is the accomodation in the Karunya University hostels?

SR
Smriti Reddy Posted On : October 4th, 2021
B.Tech Men's Fashion and Style,Karunya University (2019)

I have a few friends from Karunya University. According to them, the hostel facilities are quite good. 

  • In the first and second year, you will have to stay in 4-seater rooms with four random people. In the third or fourth year, you can change to single seater/4-seater/6-seater rooms. For single-seater rooms, you will have to pay an extra 5,000 each semester.
  • Every room in the hostel is facilitated with a proper cot, tube lights, study table, clean bathrooms, housekeeping, and proper ventilation. You can also use a wall shelf for keeping your belongings. The rooms are spacious. However, the rooms are non-ac. 
  • The hostels are safe. There is 24/7 security.
  • The food and accommodation facilities are worth the money. The curfew time for students to enter the hostel is around 7 in the evening. 

Very few colleges in Tamil Nadu can match up to the standard of Karunya when it comes to hostel and accommodation. The hostel is very strict when it comes to discipline.

Which is the best hostel at SASTRA University?

VR
Veda Roy Posted On : November 12th, 2021
M.Tech Power Systems from SASTRA University, Thanjavur

PV Paramandra Vihar Hostel is the best at SASTRA University. A few of my friends stayed in PV. According to them, the facilities offered at the hostel are good. There are no water problems. Although at other hostels, you will face this problem from time to time. 

At PV, the hostel fees are also quite less. There is good ventilation. So, even if there is a power cut, you can sleep well. The only problem is the mess. It is situated on the ground floor and there are only two staircases. During rainy seasons, it gets a bit difficult to reach the mess.

How is the hostel of Amity University, Kolkata?

MS
Monica Sinha Posted On : May 19th, 2023
Studied at Amity University Kolkata (2020)

The hostels of Amity University Kolkata are pathetic with no good facilities that might improve the standards of living. The fees are as high as 90k every year, which does not even include food expenses. The food served here is only veg with no non-veg cuisine. 

The warden too is very uncooperative and lacks empathy. The rules here are followed strictly and any carelessness on the part of students is taken care of with great discipline. Students are not allowed to eat chicken or even use kettles.

On weekends, students can go out of the campus only for an hour or so. A day's leave requires permission from various concerned persons and is a tedious process. The rules are even more strict for girls who have to return at 5 pm. There are hundreds of formalities after which you will be allowed to go. I would recommend you rent a flat if you want to make your stay a bit flexible and experience the freedom of college life.
