Hi, I was wondering what a "4apt" style room in Bates Residence is like?
Does that mean that 4 people sleep in the same room as in other traditional style residences, or that there are 4 people per living space, but each has their own separate bedroom?
Thanks for any help!

You got it right the second time. A four bedroom apartment consists of four separate bedrooms, with a common living room, kitchen, and bathroom within the apartment. Check out the virtual tour:

I don't have an exact number for you, but expect at least one on each floor, and then of course the basement has a couple.

I think there's a closet in every room. As for the captain's bed drawers, you may or may not have them as part of your bed frame.

there are closets but they have no doors on them for some reason, though you can see where they used to be
There are also captain's bed drawers (3) and a lot of room under the bed itself to store stuff

Hey there, I was wondering if there really are 2 person apts? Me and a friend signed up together, but only us two were assigned a room, A and C, while B and D still state empty on the application form. It says Apt.4 on the description of our room, we're room 105 btw. Anyone have any idea whats going on?
