These are very similar in their research. I might tend to look at dormitories as their are more options in the organization - various layouts. There are very different options for freshman than there are for upper leve or graduate students. Hotels tend to be very repetitive.

If you decide to do a hotel, you might want to concentrate on a boutique hotel.
