BITS Pilani Hyderabad has decently constructed hostels with all basic amenities. The majority of students get single rooms while BTech first-year students get double occupancy rooms sometimes. 

Adequate cleanliness is maintained and washrooms have hygienic conditions. You will find muddy water because of the recycling water system. As for the drinking water, you will get both hot and cold drinking water.

 A typical room inside the BITS Pilani Hyderabad hostel comprises basic commodities such as a bed, a chair, a table, a whiteboard, a big cupboard, and storage space. Students get access to 2 charging points one near their bed and the other news to their study table in addition to one LAN port. BITS Pilani hostels are not air-conditioned but you will adapt yourself to the heat pretty soon. For reference, I am attaching a picture of my friend's room in the Ganga Bhavan hostel.

NIT Agartala is quite old and was established in 1965 as Tripura Engineering College. As a student of this institution, here are my honest reviews of it-

• Academics- The college offers average academics, but research facilities are lacking. But like other central government colleges, it receives good funding. The faculty is below average and students mostly depend on self-study. CSE, ECE, EE, ME, and CIVIL are good branches that you can opt for at this institution. The curriculum is at par with top institutions. 

• Hostels and Facilities- The facilities are top-notch. Libraries are well-maintained with one being a completely digital library. Workshops and labs are well-equipped and have virtual class facilities. NITA hosts a supercomputer, and ISRO established an innovation incubation centre on campus. The college has good wifi and sports facilities. The hostels are quite good but the mess food is below average.

• Location and Connectivity- Agartala is a developed but remote city. Air is the main means of connectivity because rail connectivity is quite poor. NITA is in a remote area, 23 kilometers away from the city, but buses, autos and vans are available. 

• Placement- CSE placements are average, but this is not the case with other branches. Because of its remote location, the college is visited by few companies. IT companies like Infosys, IBM, Wipro, Tech Mahindra, etc. visit for mass recruitments. Product-based IT companies like Samsung, Oracle, Info Edge, etc. also hire students. Non-IT companies like MuSigma, L&T, Kirloskar, Vedanta, etc. are also seen during the placement season. PSUs visit towards the end of the placement season. Just the top students can expect to be offered placements. 

Overall, NIT Agartala is a good college with low placements. Based on this information, you can decide whether or not to opt for it.

NIT Agartala is a decent option in terms of academics, hostel, facilities, studies, and placements. Academics are decent. But there aren’t many chances for research. Professors are well-experienced and supportive but most of the time you need to depend on self-study. 

Being a Central Govt. college, NITA offers good facilities. The departmental library, workshops, and laboratories are well-equipped. It offers virtual class facilities. ISRO has an innovation incubation center on the campus of NITA. 

The institute has a decent placement record. According to the recent highlights of NIT Agartala placements, the highest and average CTC offered was INR 36 LPA, and 5 LPA, respectively. 

No, it’s prohibited to install ACs or even coolers in BITS Pilani hostels. There are 2 main reasons for this. Firstly ACs will cost very much and the electricity bills will be high. Secondly, it will be very difficult to provide ACs for around 3000 students inside the campus. 

Honestly, you will get used to the heat after the initial struggle and will not even find the lack of ACs a big issue.

IIT Delhi has a total of 18 hostels for men, and 2 hostels for women. Each hostel is equipped with basic amenities such as a common room, a reading room, and mess hall. The hostels also have 24-hour security and medical facilities. Additionally, the hostels have a common room, an indoor games room, and a gym.

The buildings are old given the time they were built, yet the facilities are decent. First-year students are allotted triple occupancy rooms while some are allotted double. This depends on the hostel you are assigned as each hostel has different maps and infrastructure. A typical room in an IIT Delhi has:

• 3 beds occupied by many 
• Three tables, mostly used for keeping bottles and random stuff 
• Three chairs, hardly used for sitting but keeping additional stuff
• 2 almirahs with four slots each. 
• 3 wooden showcases for keeping books and stuff like toothbrushes , toothpaste, comb, empty perfume sprays,earphones etc.
• 2 LAN ports for 3 people with additional Wi-Fi facilities.
• Electronic appliances include 2 fans, 2 tube lights, and 4 electricity boards.

All these basic amenities make students stay comfortable. After all, hostel life is all about making memories and new friends.

I will give you some details about the boys’ and girls’ hostels at VMMC.

There are two boys’ hostels and one girls’ hostel at VMMC. The two boys’ hostels are- Old Boys’ Hostel and New Boys’ Hostel. The hostels offer AC facilities, and you can decorate your rooms as per your wish. 

There is no curfew system in the hostels. A water cooler and purifier are available for each floor, and you’ll get an uninterrupted power supply. Local students have to wait for months before getting a hostel room.
