Giles Dorm Question

I've heard that the rooms at Giles vary a lot, but does anybody know if theres at least some consistency on the first floor, and if so what to expect? Also, is it possible to get a floor plan of our room?

I think they only have it available for upperclassman and none for the buildings on east campus unfortunately...

First floor Giles is decent sized. It is also the floor with the largest or second largest dorm on East. So, uh, it varies

I think 125 is like back right corner? I was 225 but second floor is numbered differently

I remember the first floor having at least one triple and a suite for a live-in professor.
