The main problem in this study was the disruption of the occupants of the university residence college. These problems will interfere with the learning process of residents throughout the university and can lead to a decline in the quality of life.

The questionnaire was divided into two sections, part A on respondents' demographics which contained five question items and part B related to the comfort of a residential college accommodation containing 12 items of questions. Data analysis uses a percentage to determine the level of comfort. The findings show that all 12 items of comfort-room questions of public university accommodation rooms are at a comfortable level and this proves that the provision of guest room facilities by the university meets the needs of the occupants.
