There are three dormitory buildings arranged around a courtyard with laundry racks and ping pong tables. Three corner stores, a clinic, a mobile phone store and a photocopy place are also part of this complex.

At the beginning of the semester, a lot of students aired out their bedding. None of us have clothes dryers, so we dry our clothes and bedding indoors or out.
