The staff is so kind and welcoming! They keep the bathrooms and the common areas super clean. The location is conveniently close to the gym, dining halls, and academic buildings. The established quiet hours are always followed which supports a healthy sleep schedule.

I met a lot of my friends who lived on my hall during welcome week It was a fairly quiet dorm and is close to athletic facilities which is a plus since its a big football school. All the staff is very nice.

West Ambler Johnston hall at Virginia Tech: My freshman haven. A vibrant community fostering lifelong friendships and late-night study sessions. Cherished memories were made here, creating a lasting impact on my college experience.

West AJ is a great place to live, if you are serious about your classes. I made many friends in the short time I lived there, and all were incredible people. 3 of them in particular were amazing engineering students, and all were serious about their studying. The facilities are great. The location is great: you are close to the best dining halls, gym, and rec fields, though a touch further from the classrooms. You will find some goobers, but most folks are good students and better people.

Such a clean and comfortable dorm! West AJ has ac which is always a plus and all of the staff that Iβve met here has been extremely kind and helpful! It is a very quiet dorm, good for studying but weekends are always lively, although not too lively! Itβs overall updated and clean which is awesome!

West Ambler Johnston itself is wonderful. The staff are kind and the building stays fairly clean. The RAs are fairly relaxed, so the noise can be bothersome and the common rooms get dirty very quickly. Most of the issues I have are with the actual students and not the staff. We do have weekly meetings and receive emails often, so issues can be worked on in a professional manner. One of the main issues is maintenance. In my experience it takes at least a week to get something fixed if its in your room, usually more. Other than that, there are man fun activities and having AC is nice during the hot months.

My time at West AJ has been great. The dorm is in my opinion one of if not the best dorm on campus. Many people who come inside say its fancy or looks like a hotel. I've never had any real issues while I was here. It's great as it has a game room, kitchen, and lots of spacious common rooms.

This dorm is arguably the best dorm on campus. Close to most dining halls, and Lane Stadium, and the gym. It has a parking lot nearby and it's where I've met all of my friends there. The only drawback is its distance from classes but thats a minor inconvenience

It's where I've met all of my major friends and arguably the best dorm building on campus. I spend almost all my time there, all of my new friends come there to meet us. It's by 2 major dining halls and Lane Stadium and the gym. It's only negative is distance from classes. But it's great.

West AJ is a nice cozy space for on-campus housing! The social life is on the quieter side compared to other dorms. It's one of the more newly renovated spaces with AC right beside a dining hall for easy food.

West AJ has been amazing to live in for the past year. As a student who lives in a different, older dorm last year, this has been such an upgrade in every way. I wish we had a kitchen closer to where I lived, but the one between east and west aj is very nice just a little farther away. AC is amazing.

West Ambler Johnston is an overall nice place to live. It has several amenities and the feel of a hotel. I enjoy living here, but living with other less cleanly people is sometimes a challenge. Some residents are louder which is to be expected of college students.

I have been living here since my Freshman year. It's been a great experience. COVID kind of messed some things up but I don't think there's much to complain about. The staff is really nice like they always greet you in a friendly manner as well.
