I bought 5 identical desks. Computer, fax, printer, etc are not supplied! The picture on the left are what you see after I put in a couple of hours of assembly effort. The chest of drawers is typical of the natural wood finish Pine, Birch and Maple furniture that we supply, and you might find at Ikea. See room 3 pictures for other views of this type of desk.
One room has an Ikea bulky tubular metal frame bed with bright primary yellow and red tubes that you see on the left . The photograph taken in room 4 also shows one of the two Ikea Poang chairs that we have in our pool of upholstered chairs. However we can swap the metal bed with one of two extra wood head and tail board beds if requested. See the room 4 pictures for other views of this bed.
All rooms are painted a light beige colour. Most windows have 1 inch mini white venetian blinds. All upstairs rooms are carpeted, and the downstairs rooms have oak hardwood floors. All rooms have a closet, and one room (NE) has a 2nd BIG cave closet.
Each room has triple wall outlet jack for telephone, Internet and for cable TV. All rooms have at least 3 duplex receptacles, on at least two circuits. We now no longer have a land line for telephone service, and we have only our own antenna for 10 local english language stations. We have not subscribed to cable TV for years.
All student rooms are equipped with a lock and key. They all have a fire rated door and automatic spring closing mechanism for fire safety.
