The YOUniversity Suites and L.A. Village: Where Hip meets Legacy in this side of Manila

At the heart of the bustling district, along Claro M. Recto Avenue, lies the new YOUniversity Suites and L.A. Village. Formerly a four-storey Laperal Apartments built in 1946, this site is now the new haven to students mostly of the neighboring universities and colleges.

YOUniversity Suites is the modern-day dormitory with a touch of condo living that caters to undergraduates studying in Manila’s University Belt.  It has 85 semi-furnished units ready to be lived in.  Students can enjoy the comforts of urban-style living while getting a glimpse of the past through art deco structures that meet industrial interiors. 

Ranging from 11 to 27 square meters, each high-ceiling suite comes with sturdy bunk beds, locker storage spaces, and spacious dining and bath areas.  Available for single, double, or quadruple occupancy, rooms can be rented for as low as Php 5,000 a month, with more affordable rates given to annual boarders.

The Study Haven built for single study and group work/discussion

This hip and homey YOUniversity Suites provides high-security living quarters and common areas for all-night study sessions and much-needed breaks.  Students can hang out with other dorm residents at the lobby, the open air Sky Lounge, or take a dip in the exclusive indoor swimming pool.

Village – a vintage-inspired commercial complex which offers four floors of fun and entertainment!  Be greeted by the coolest retro elements, such as wooden barrels turned into a fountain, an Airstream travel trailer repurposed into a food kiosk, and an authentic World War I German aircraft that floats majestically over the common dining area.
