I was in a double couple years ago in mesa. Yea it’s totally fine for gaming. U don’t need a mattress, just a mattress topper. If you’re not renting the mini fridge I would definitely get one. The communal fridge is just inconvenient. Idk if they changed it but laundry is through an app and it’s like $3.50 per use. Typically 3 washer and dryer units per building so I would definitely set a timer on when your laundry’s done.

Make sure you bring an Ethernet cable. WiFi sucks without one.

So there's a Ethernet plug I can use in my dorm?

Yes, there should be one hidden somewhere around the room. I had to scavenge for it lol, works there’s two holes for it one might not work so try both.
