Mary Markley Hall is great - the location is prime to all of my classes and to the town. I have met some great people in my dorm and right from the start developed friendships with people on another floor. The bathroom is right near my room which is great. While my room is small, it has everything I need, including a window, furniture, and having the bed up higher allows me to put things below so all of my stuff fits in.

Living at Mary Markley Hall was truly a blessing as it was a vibrant, extremely social, and overall great environment. While it may appear to be a regular, old college dorm to many, it was truly a home to me as well as many others. The hugely populated dorm had many advantages as many people in my classes as well as those I met through various activities lived there. I would strongly recommend this dorm, and I believe it provided the perfect freshman college dorm atmosphere.

In terms of Freshman Dorms, I think that it is tied for second worst (worst: Baits). Bursley is better than Markley because Markley DOES NOT HAVE AC, and the rooms are tiny. But, Markley is better than Bursley because it is highly social, on central campus, has make your own pizza in the dining hall (best dining hall IMO), and large common areas. Though extremely old, Markley has a special place in my heart.

Markley was an overall okay dorm to live in my first year. There was no A/C, not the best community bathrooms, and the rooms are very small. However, it is known as the "social dorm", so I met a ton on new friends there!

Being in the University of Michigan dorms during the pandemic was tough. COVID-19 spread throughout all the dorms rather quickly, especially because many students weren't following any of the university guidelines.

My experience at Mary Markley Hall was overall great, however there were many rats and spiders that were seen and the space was extremely limited in comparison to other halls on campus. I wish there was much more offered to residents, as common places were majority closed.

Markley didn't have the best living conditions-- rooms were small, dining hall wasn't open on weekends, and overall old and rundown. However, Markley is very social and I made many good friends there.

Mary Markley is a Freshman dorm behind the hill. It has it's own dining hall, but is a hike from most basic classes unless you attend the school of public health. It's pretty quite for the most part since it's one of the furthest and oldest dorms, but despite the rumors it's not cockroach infested. I didn't see one roach the whole year I lived there. Markley does have it's own dining hall, but it's closed on the weekends so you do actually have to leave and walk to one of the other dining halls on campus for dinners. Overall, Markley isn't as bad as it may seem if you ignore the far distance and minuscule rooms. (Sadly Markley does have some of the smallest rooms on campus with the worst lighting in the bathrooms.)

I enjoyed my time at Mary Markley. Everyone, including the staff, was very accommodating and friendly which made it easy to meet people even during COVID-19. I was still able to have fun in a safe way by bonding with those on my floor.

It was a place where I met my best friends and people I have been friends with all 3 years. Since it was all freshmen, we had a unified experience. I would definitely recommend this dorm to a friend because of the experience rather than how clean it was or room size.
