Byrnes Hall Dorm Reviews at Clemson

The dorms were small but manageable and staff cleaned the halls daily. The walls are thin and you can hear those in other rooms, however my floor was fairly quiet. Bathrooms were old and sometimes messy. Overall not the best housing assignment but also not the worst at Clemson. Would not recommend again.

I thought that Byrnes was perfect for my first year at Clemson. I was on the 8th floor and it was usually quiet once quiet hours started, there weren't many large gatherings on my floor, the main floor had a few areas for gatherings. Although one of the showers broke, the bathrooms were kept clean. The laundry room was decently clean, although some days it was hard to claim a washer.

It was pretty alright for a campus apartment. There are better ones for sure, but Byrnes is not the worst. It is easy to make friends there. The stairs are a killer on your legs if you live on one of the upper floors though.

For paying the large sum of money for room and board, I expected that along with my deposit and the deposit of all the other students in the dorm system, the college would have taken better care of the living conditions of the students. The dorms at best could be classified as a living space and not anything above that. I found that they were not as good as they were advertised when I toured them before my attendance at Clemson University.

It's been pretty nice living in Byrnes, it's close to Schlitter dining hall, which is very nice when you're running late, and other than the stairs being steep and having to take them during fire drills, there's really nothing that's bad about living in Byrnes.
