Hey,
I'm going to be living there next year. A few people have said Sallies is cliquey. Any thoughts on that? I'm really excited, other than that...its so beautiful in pictures!
Thanks for any answer you can give me:)

A21 is a double, but be happy, because it's one of the big rooms with the bay windows. A17 & A25 are the same type of room. Great views of the lawn and the front door... so you can see who comes and goes, which can be distracting sometimes, helpful other times.
People seem to have mixed views of Sallies... true, the community there leaves much to be desired, but you definitely will find your own group of friends. Pros are the location (proximity to the centre of town, the library, & the sea, esp. the Castle sands), and I guess the general look & layout of the hall itself. The lawn is also nice in the spring for frisbee, ball games, & outdoor studying. The warden will probably give some sort of long-winded, pseudo-metaphorical speech at the outset (tragedy of the commons, anyone?), warning kids not to go on the lawn, but by the time spring rolls around no one cares.
So I guess the moral of the story is, enjoy your time at Sallies. It has its high points and low points as any hall does, but odds are, you'll have a good time. Besides, it's supposedly the one everyone wants to get into, so that must count for something...
