Location is great, unit is good(but small), parking is fair, no dishwasher.

Campus Club is two buildings separated by a courtyard with all units facing the court yard. Campus Club is located very close to DU and is an easy walk for students. There are also multiple restaurants within walking distance. The units are not big but sufficient size. The living room and dining area are nice. The kitchen/walk way is narrow and counter space is very limited, there is about a square foot on either side of the sink. There is a refrigerator and freezer as well as a stove and oven. There is no ice maker or dishwasher. There is a closet in the walkway to hang and store items. The pantry is good size. The bathroom is good both in quality and size. The bedroom is a good size and the closet has ample space. The quality of the unit is good. There is a laundry room on the first floor that has 3 washers and 3 dryers. They require about $3 per load of laundry. In my experience, there are always available machines. There is parking both in front and in back of the building, however, there are only about 20 spots for the 36 units and the spots are first-come first-serve so it's common to not be able to get a spot if you come home after 5pm. The spots in back of the building are in an alley where delivery trucks weekly park to make deliveries to the buildings that compose the other wall of the alley. While these trucks are parked they are blocking multiple cars and it can be impossible to move your car for hours. The courtyard is nice but infrequently, maintenance is loud in the courtyard in the mornings and the noise can sound as if it is coming right beyond your unit's door.
