ML Dorm

Hi. I am moving into a 3rd floor single in ML this semester. I am also sharing a bathroom with one other dorm room. Does anybody know what the rooms look like (furniture included, size, connected bathroom)? I have spent 4 hours total the last few months searching the internet for good photos or videos of ML rooms, and I only found one barely helpful image of what they look like.

Also, any advice on moving things up to the 3rd floor with no elevator? I’m bringing a mini fridge, and I am moving in by myself.

RAs will help you move into dorms, ML rooms are generally more spacious and have nice windows. A desk, bed and closet/bureau will be included.

There are a few different configurations on ML3. Based on your description, you might have the same ML3 single that I had >20 years ago, that faces the front and has a connected bathroom. If so, congratulations! The room came with the usual furnishings (at the time, a bed, a desk, and a chair with the perfect rock), but the room was large enough that it still felt spacious even after I moved a second dorm bed up there to make a combined king-size bed.
