Hmmm, I think it's the same format at my room last year 317. It's a bit odd. When you walk into the room you'll think it looks small. You can move the beds around (Get a couple people to help it is heavy) and get a lot more space. Everything is turned 90 degrees compared to the other rooms.

I lived in 111 and if I remember correctly, 117 is stright down the hallway..Everyone on the floor was very jealous of those living in 117 because, i think, it was the only room that had its own side entrance along with a kitchen and washroom. You are lucky for getting that room. --- dont quote me on this though-it could either be room 117 or 118. I dont clearly remember.
Anyways, all the rooms in Edwards are huge.

It depends on the people living there. The third floor bathrooms were always clean.
