Resident Reviews of Sonora Center
- Freshman | August 6
Overall, worst experience here. I love going to ASU but Sonora is probably the worst dorms you can stay at, I would advise any freshman to declare their major instead of going into the explore program because ASU's dorms are based off of what your major is. So don't go the undecided/undeclared route. First off, the bathrooms in the dorms are horrendous. There was mold all over the shower even when we've never used it, and our room as well as the rooms next to us flooded three times we were living there. This meant the entire bathroom floor was covered in like an inch of water which flooded all the way to my roommate's room, right by her closet too. When it flooded, the pictures show how it looked, there was water all over the floor and literal sewage came up from the shower drain and from the toilet too. So basically shit and piss in our carpet while we were living and sleeping there. We were also never told to move rooms either so we were living in a biohazard. The rooms also just looked like a dungeon which didn't make the dorm experience better. The only nice thing about Sonora was the private onsite pool and your room opening up to the outs instead of a hallway. You do also get in trouble a shit-ton more than other dorms but that might just be because of the layout and my RA's. So if you're reading this review, change your major now if it's the Explore Major.
