Bennett Hall Dorm Reviews at OSU

For the time I was there it was great. I did not have any issues at all. It was very safe and I was able to come and go as I pleased. There was even a time when I was locked out and was able to get back in

There are many good things about Bennett Hall. My favorite thing is that it's right across from the football stadium. The people around here are super sweet and kind. No one is super loud at all, we all respect the quiet hours.

The extra space and common area are nice, but I wish the area had some more maintenance done. There are quite a few dings in things that can cause problems with closing doors. I also was missing the rod to be able to control my blinds, but I was able to work around it.

If you get involved with the other people on your floor it makes it a very enjoyable place to live. the only downside is the maintenance department as a whole not telling you how soon or who they will send. I had someone who I had been avoiding and have since put a restraining order on to stay away from me to fix the ac.

Bennett is a great place to live. The hall itself is really nice, despite the age. Many renovations are underway to update the common areas and hallways, as well as the rooms themselves. We recently got new furniture for the living rooms.

Remodeled House that is right next to football field. Still needs upkeeping and maintenance in my opinion. One of the oldest Halls, housing that I am aware of. Still a nice building for first year students.

It wasn't the best place to live during my freshman year, but it wasn't the worst. Rooms were quite small and bathrooms were oddly laid out. The rooms next to us were loud also. Our furniture looked like it had been used for 50 years; the place needed some serious renovation.

I have lived on the 4th floor of Bennett Hall for a year and have had very few issues, which were the furniture and location. The furniture got delayed due to the pandemic, we got the furniture late in the first semester when it was supposed to be there before we moved in. Bennett Hall is ten minutes away from the heart of campus, so walking to and from campus can get annoying but I believe that it is a good workout and worth the benefits of living in Bennett hall. One year ago Bennett Hall also had a dining area that was unfortunately closed due to the pandemic, but I believe that with time it will reopen. There are also many activities to participate in, one that is coming up will give you the opportunity to milk a cow.

I have not been here long, but it is pretty nice here. I have a room and bathroom to myself, so I'm not sure what it would be like to have roommates. The set-up of the building is confusing, however, and it's pretty far from most of campus. But there is a grocery store and a small restaurant in the dormitory, so it makes up for it in that regard. Parking is horrible though, as there is hardly any.

It's definitely a unique group of students that live in Bennett. The cross over is sometimes hard to work around, but it's really nice to have your own space. The kitchen/lounges and laundry rooms are nice, but it's up to the students to keep them clean most of the time. The people that work here are super nice and I honestly like them better than some of the residents.
