Inside the dormitory building, there is a large suite with four small rooms (A, B, C, D), a large living room, a balcony, two independent bathrooms, and four washbasins. Each small room accommodates four people,with bunk beds and a desk opposite (beds 1 and 4 are lower bunks, beds 2 and 3 are upper bunks).Xingtian Garden A is a mixed-gender dormitory, while Xingtian Garden B is an all-girls dormitory (referred to as the Princess Building by NPUers).

NO.2 Facilities Section
Laundry
Each dormitory building has a laundry room on the first floor, equipped with fully automatic washing machines, shoe washing machines, and dryers. You can pay via QR code to do laundry. Therefore, new NPUers can directly bring their clothes and laundry detergent to the laundry room.
Although the staff regularly disinfects the washing machines, NPUers should avoid putting personal items such as underwear, shoes, and socks in the public washing machines!
Air Conditioning
Each dormitory is equipped with an air conditioner, and at the beginning of the school year, NPUers need to pay for four years of air conditioning usage.

Showers
Hot water is available 24 hours in Yuntian Garden Building A and all dormitory buildings in Haitian Garden. The hot water supply time for other dormitory buildings is 18:30-00:30, and it may also be adjusted based on specific holidays. The hot water is charged in real-time, with 1 yuan providing approximately 5 minutes of hot water.
Keys
If NPUers accidentally lose their keys, they can borrow a spare key from the dormitory manager and then go to the dry cleaner next to the student supermarket to get a new key made.
Heating
When the weather turns cold, the school will provide heating uniformly~ (generally from mid-November to March of the following year).
Water Heaters
Each floor is equipped with 1-2 water heaters, usually located next to the public washbasins or stairs, providing hot water 24 hours a day.
NO.3 Beautification Section
New NPUers must want to “decorate” their dormitory nicely. Below, Xiao Niu~ provides some dormitory dimensions to help everyone purchase storage items, mattresses, mosquito nets, etc.
P.S. The bed size in the dormitory is 0.9m*2m (the same size for Building B), and if you need to apply for a larger bed, you can contact your class teacher or counselor~
