@glido , Walsh (the 555) has kitchens and they even remodeled some of them. In 2015 when my daughter moved into Walsh, they did a huge upgrade over the summer by installing new windows with AC! It was wonderful. And yes Arthur Avenue is nearby but it gets expensive after a while.
My daughter had a tapestry while living in Walsh and Conley so unless they changed the rules since she graduated last year, I don’t know. But I do remember during fire drills is when the RA’s would so room searches.
And as for the food, it did get a bit better with Aramark, but pricing went up, but the quality was still “meh” at best. I have to ask my daughter since she’s now a grad student and still eats occasionally at RH in the “caf” and I don’t know if she’s had a chance to check out LC’s offerings since she’s there late at night for her grad school classes.
