§ 02 — THE METHOD

Six numbers,
not one star.

Every review is broken down across cleanliness, location, value, amenities, management, and safety. So a “good place” doesn't hide a bad lease.

Only verified students can post. We check the university email, then the receipt. No agents, no astroturf, no five-star reviews from accounts three days old.

Reviews stay up. The good ones, the embarrassing ones, the angry ones. Operators get a right of reply, not a right of deletion.

§ 03 — THE QUIZ

One real list.

Loud or quiet. Cooks every night, or once a week. Tell us how you actually live. We'll rank the properties against your shape, and show you the top six.
