I've only seen one single room in moulton but it was HUGE. I strongly believe it was a double room converted into a single room though.

I believe that for the all girls thing they change it sometimes, cause in my first year (3 years ago) it was the basement and half of the first floor was all girls and then 2 years ago it was 3rd and 4th floor all girls. Last year I don't know what it was but they might have changed it again.

the "basement" rooms are still above ground so they're not bad at all... like people said the rooms are very big compared to any other residences single rooms, so enjoy.

I've never personally lived in them but I've seen quite a few of them. The rooms are large. The best feature about Moulton is definitely the storage space. There are a ton of cupboards and shelves and it's absolutely ideal for a female who owns a lot of stuff like myself. Kinda wished I lived there but I'll always be a true Whiddenite. Moulton would definitely be second best in my opinion though. It's a very social residence as well so it's great to meet new people especially since they've got communal washrooms.

You'll absolutely love the room! I lived in a single for 2 years in Moulton and loved it. As mentioned above, the rooms are huge and there is so much storage. By far, however, my favorite part was the MASSIVE desk space. The desk basically spans the entire length of the room.
The bathrooms can be a bit of a hassle though, especially if you live in the basement. Last year there was only a guys bathroom (incl showers) in the basement. The girls had to go to 1st floor to use the showers. (There is a girls bathroom w/o showers in the basement). Other than that, it'll be great!
Not to mention, depending on where your classes are, I found it terribly convenient to walk to class from there because it was so central campus.

Actually i think ur on the first floor. If u had a B in front of your room number then i think that would be basement i.e. B111. My room number is 302 but it says my floor is 3N,and my theory is that it has something to do with what wing of the building your own like n is north or somthing. but its just a theory :p
And ya moulton has some hugeee single rooms! w00t. Especially the cornerrs! I was in one last year (311) and i almost died when i saw how much space i had
