The answer for this question depends on your perspective. If you are a resident of Malda, whether you are from a more developed area and the lifestyle you are used to.

• Compared to the institutes in Kolkata, Malda Medical College is new. 
• As it is new, the hostels are obviously in a good condition. 
• The hostels are also well maintained. 
• If you come across problems, they will be taken care of as soon as possible. 
• There is a shortage of rooms in the hostels but that problem is being taken care of. 
• The rooms are more or less clean.
• Food from the canteen is cheap but it is not worth it.

Lastly, it can be said that you can only trust homemade food as the food quality in the canteen is very bad. The campus is not that big and there is not even a playground on the campus. Also, the faculty are rotated in all the medical colleges of West Bengal so you will never find a professor in the college all the time.
