Just moved in and the experience has been good. The Residence Hall staff were hands on during move in day. The only thing I wanted was a exterior window with sunlight for my plants; however, I have an interior window with views of the common areas.

I had a wonderful experience at Blanton. Blanton is a part of the Honors Quad along with Carothers, Andrews, and Littlefield. The interconnected buildings, large common spaces, and friendly culture made it very easy to meet new people and find great friends. I had no issues with cleanliness in communal bathrooms, and people were generally very respectful of keeping noise levels down late at night. Even if things were noisy, it typically happened in common areas that aren't too close to people's dorms anyways. There are three grand pianos in the common areas. One thing to note is that Blanton dorms do not have sinks, unlike in Carothers and Andrews. Blanton and the other dorms in the Honors Quad are all very close to the Kins Dining Hall. However, they are all relatively far from McCombs, Gregory Gym, and other things in that area. Overall, I had a great time there, and I would recommend living in the Blanton or anywhere else in the Honors Quad.

I actually moved into Blanton to escape my roommate from another dorm, and it's exactly what I wanted out of my college dorm experience. The beds are lofted, you have a fridge and a microwave, I don't have a roommate so I have a double all to myself. It's a fairly nice life. There's a slight adjustment to living in the vicinity of so many people, but once you're settled in, it's great!

Blanton Hall was a great dorm for my first year at college. The people were great and the rooms are all you can need. Just make sure to follow quiet hours and I recommend a humidifier because the rooms are extremely dry!

My experience at Blanton Hall was not exactly pleasant. I was dorming during the covid-19 pandemic and did not believe that this residence hall was taking proper precautions. Blanton hall is also one of the oldest halls on campus and was not maintained very well.

The Blanton dorm at UT Austin is rather small, but it works. It has two closets, two desks, two beds, two shelves, and one microwave and minifridge. A couple of things I did not like was that it doesn't have sinks, and that the doors slam easily and make a lot of noise! The walls also are quite thin and sound can pass through them easily. Other than that however, the residence hall is very nice and the people there are very friendly. I am enjoying my time here.

I love where Blanton Hall is placed on campus. It is right in the middle of where the majority of campus life takes places. There's also a Dunkin' Donuts, Chili's, Jersey Mike's, and Outtakes on the first floor.

I moved to Blanton as a freshman, and I love it. I feel safer, and it is so calm at Blanton. I like how it is the first dome on campus. The CA there are so nice and sweet. Blanton is a good dome. I am glad I move into it

My experience at Blanton Hall has been a fine one to some extent. Though the building itself is pretty outdated and can be especially updated in the dorm areas, this is the only traditional residential dorm at Montclair State University that has air conditioning. Additionally, this dorm offers a game room, community kitchen, 3 study areas on each floor, 2 washrooms on each floor, and a large dining area with a selection of restaurants on the main floor; These restaurants include, Dunkin Donuts, Jersey Mikes, and Chilies. The dorm rooms themselves have a shared bathroom set up that allows two doubles to share a bathroom in between the two rooms. You are given a wardrobe, a desk, a draw, and a bed in regards to furniture. If you are someone who loves a very lively, and bubbly atmosphere, Blanton Hall is a good option as there is much happening as an effect of the dining area that Blanton hosts, and the large population of sophomores and freshmen that reside here.
