While most rooms are doubles, HBO\u2019s corner rooms are designed to hold three students. The rooms feature built-in furniture that allows you to take advantage of amazing storage and lots of floor space. You share two communal bathrooms and showers on each floor, which are some of the nicest on campus with their spa-like feel. Also, each floor has a study area for student use.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The lobby of HBO is home to Rex\u2019s Lair, an open and inviting space that is open to all students. It features a kitchen, billiards table, and theater-style seating for watching TV on the big screen. The HBO laundry room and vending machines are also located on the first floor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/maps.app.goo.gl\/fyDevjFCb1MYX1iQA\">HBO<\/a> is located at the end of the Residential Quad, opposite of Queens Hall.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"352\" height=\"352\" data-id=\"179\" src=\"https:\/\/www.queens.edu\/living\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2023\/09\/Hbo-exteriorSm.jpg\" alt=\"Hall Brown Overcash Residence Hall\" class=\"wp-image-179\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.queens.edu\/living\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2023\/09\/Hbo-exteriorSm.jpg 352w, https:\/\/www.queens.edu\/living\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2023\/09\/Hbo-exteriorSm-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.queens.edu\/living\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2023\/09\/Hbo-exteriorSm-150x150.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 352px) 100vw, 352px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Front exterior<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"352\" height=\"352\" data-id=\"277\" src=\"https:\/\/www.queens.edu\/living\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2023\/09\/Hbo-showerSm.jpg\" alt=\"HBO Showers\" class=\"wp-image-277\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.queens.edu\/living\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2023\/09\/Hbo-showerSm.jpg 352w, https:\/\/www.queens.edu\/living\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2023\/09\/Hbo-showerSm-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.queens.edu\/living\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2023\/09\/Hbo-showerSm-150x150.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 352px) 100vw, 352px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Showers<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"352\" height=\"352\" data-id=\"276\" src=\"https:\/\/www.queens.edu\/living\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2023\/09\/Hbo-emptySm.jpg\" alt=\"HBO Room\" class=\"wp-image-276\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.queens.edu\/living\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2023\/09\/Hbo-emptySm.jpg 352w, https:\/\/www.queens.edu\/living\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2023\/09\/Hbo-emptySm-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.queens.edu\/living\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2023\/09\/Hbo-emptySm-150x150.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 352px) 100vw, 352px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Room<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"352\" height=\"352\" data-id=\"275\" src=\"https:\/\/www.queens.edu\/living\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2023\/09\/Hall-brown-overcash-common-areaSm.jpg\" alt=\"HBO Common room\" class=\"wp-image-275\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.queens.edu\/living\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2023\/09\/Hall-brown-overcash-common-areaSm.jpg 352w, https:\/\/www.queens.edu\/living\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2023\/09\/Hall-brown-overcash-common-areaSm-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.queens.edu\/living\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2023\/09\/Hall-brown-overcash-common-areaSm-150x150.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 352px) 100vw, 352px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Rex&#8217;s Lair<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"352\" height=\"352\" data-id=\"274\" src=\"https:\/\/www.queens.edu\/living\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2023\/09\/Hall-brown-overcash-common-area2Sm.jpg\" alt=\"HBO Common area\" class=\"wp-image-274\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.queens.edu\/living\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2023\/09\/Hall-brown-overcash-common-area2Sm.jpg 352w, https:\/\/www.queens.edu\/living\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2023\/09\/Hall-brown-overcash-common-area2Sm-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.queens.edu\/living\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2023\/09\/Hall-brown-overcash-common-area2Sm-150x150.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 352px) 100vw, 352px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Common room<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n  \n<component\n  class=\"accordion\"\n  is=\"accordion\"\n  v-slot=\"accordion\"\n      :single=\"1\"\n  >\n      <article class=\"accordion__panel\" data-accordion-panel>\n      <h3 class=\"accordion__header\">\n        <button\n            class=\"accordion__button\"\n            data-accordion-button\n            :aria-expanded=\"accordion.active.includes(0) ?
