I have submitted a question to housing and then also chatted with an agent at the Lofts at City Center about which rooms are A, B, C, and D. Cannot seem to find someone who can confirm for me. Only those apartments being leased by the university housing department would use the ABCD label (and that’s what we are looking at.) I have assumed which ones are A B C and D, based on how rooms in the on-campus 4 room suites are described, but I just wanted to confirm, because there are differences between rooms (window size and square footage.)
Thanks in advance to anyone who may know.
Son has an A room in RCW. It’s the smallest of the bedrooms. The first one in the front. But he likes the niche and layout so no issues for him. I believe D may be the largest.
I know when we visited RCS, the student ambassador recommended A and D, which were the bigger of the 4 rooms and are on the outside. Unless I have them switched around - lol.
The Lofts layout is nothing like RCW or any other suite apartment on campus. Here is a sample floorplan for Lofts: http://www.theloftsatcitycenter.com/our-apartments/floorplans/4-bedroom/
What you might be able to assume is that Loft Bedroom “1” is UA Bedroom “A”, “2” is “B”, and so forth, but from what I can see, these plans are completely different to UA’s plans.
Also, RCW/RCE and RCS on UA have completely different layouts, as well, so A in RCW is not the same size/layout as A in RCS. All layouts can be found here: http://housing.ua.edu/halls/
Oop sorry didn’t catch the Lofts comment!
Re: The Lofts. The rooms/sizes vary depending on whether the apartment is a “four-flat” or a “corner” 4-bdrm apartment. In the “four-flat” 4-bdrm, rooms B and C are identical size and are quite small compared to the A and D rooms; my son is in a four-flat now. In the “corner” 4-bdrm apartment, the rooms are a little more evenly sized.
