McGill Housing

<p>Can anyone tell me anything about McGill housing? Specifically, New Rez, Carrefour Sherbrooke, La Citadelle, and Upper Rez? How far off campus are the first three, and are they worth the extra cost? Thanks!!</p>

<p>If you search for “housing” in the thread title within this forum, you will find a lot of posts on housing.</p>

<p>I investigted about the different residences but I only remember some details about Carrefour Sherbrooke and La Citadelle because they are my favs. They are both hotel-style rooms, where you can either have a single bedroom or double. I like this because i do not like the idea of common bathrooms, kind of grosses me out. They are both a a few blocks from campus. La citadelle is brand new, opened in 2012, and Carrefour Sherbrooke is also relatively new, which i also like. La Citadelle is the only residence on the McGill website that does not have a video tour, but on youtube i found a video made by some students living there that serves to see the rooms and a bit of how it looks inside. You can find it if you look up “la citadelle mcgill” on youtube.</p>

<p>also, these two are the most expensive ones, im guessing because they are the nicest/newest. I have heard that upper rez is famous for partying and drinking so it depends on your interests.</p>
