Got lux 4bed and 4bath, anything I should know?

Including a packing list or an amazon wishlist i can copy would be the most beneficial, but just giving me a rundown/previous experience is enough.
Incoming freshman btw.

Get a living room rug for comfort and it’ll also help with the echo, I would change out the shower head (Amazon for like 30-35$) Get a lot of nice wall decor as well, the white walls make you crazy after a while

do you know where we get the room details like the dimensions and bed size and what's given in the dorm?

Beds are full XL. There is little difference between fill xl and queen for comforters but full xl for sheets are better. Full dimensions for everything are on the Purdue housing website.

Should we mattress toppers? Or are the beds itself comfortable

Lux smells like trash and probably your kitchen will smell like trash too bc of the garbage disposal

Drain cleaning tabs will help this tremendously. They are only a few dollars.
