Almost all the hostel buildings have been replaced with newer and more modern ones.
Just like the other hostel rooms, those at SVNIT are provided with Beds, Study Tables, Chairs, Wardrobes, Fans and Internet Connections. The washrooms are common for each lobby/wing. The arrangement is different for married Phd. students. They are provided with a 1HK setup, along with an attached washroom.
