Okay and the air conditioning system here or perhaps in my Single Suite is fair. The maintenance here is satisfactory but other amenities are unsatisfactory like the dining hall or the lounge room. The lounge room oftentimes be very inactive with most of my time here being absolutely empty of Social guest.

I’m very happy living at Social Chico Residence. The dorms are clean, modern and well maintained, with comfortable beds, ample storage and reliable Wi-Fi that makes studying easy. Meals in the dining hall are varied and tasty—there’s always a good mix of healthy options and comfort favorites, and dietary needs are well accommodated. The community here is welcoming; I’ve met friendly roommates and classmates and there are frequent events that make it easy to socialize. The location is ideal —... only about a ten-minute walk to Chico State University — which saves time and makes campus life convenient. Staff are professional and responsive whenever an issue comes up. Overall, Social Chico offers excellent value for students seeking a supportive, comfortable and social living environment. It has exceeded expectations and feels like a home away from home.

The showers fluctuate in temperature when attempting to balance the water, the AC feels weak throughout the day, and the power will often trip for some unknown reason. The room is spacious and it covers the necessities, such as electricity, water, and refrigeration. Although the meal plan, the food is good and the drinks are plentiful. The only issue is that the condiments and ice will often run out. The shuttle is handy, except for late-night classes and Fridays after 12:00 PM. The residents... come from all walks of life, and most of them are friendly.

So far it has been a good experience. The main thing that I didn't like was the emergency exit door alarm because people set it off pretty often and the alarm is extremely loud to the point where I can't sleep or think while it is going off, which is usually in the middle of the night. Other than that things have been pretty good.

Just completed my first week here and so far I love being there! The dining hall serves really good food options. Love the study/computer room to go in and do some work but really wish they added a printer to print out paper so you wouldn’t have to go on campus.
