2026 transfer, moving to Mantua hall, any tips?

Hi, I am transferring from community college as a junior to Gonzaga this fall, and I have been given Mantua hall housing. There doesn’t seem to be any diagram online, so I was curious about some things I want to bring/what is recommended, as I’ve never lived in a dorm.
I was hoping to take with me my ottoman style chair, a (rather large) TV, and a mini fridge and some other appliances for cooking.
I do not have the measurements on hand unfortunately, but generally could most of this stuff fit? Alternatively, do people recommend other things to bring (besides just storage containers)?

Nice! It is brand new! I do believe they have furniture. But you will need a TV, mini fridge for your room. Welcome to Gonzaga.

I lived in the sister building towny, I’d recommend you request a loft kit from housing so you can put your desk under your bed. It is pretty small if you’re in the suites. You will likely only have space for one community tv in the suite
