This research evaluated the staff quarters of the Federal Polytechnic Bida, using PostOccupancy Evaluation (POE) as a tool. The study; identified the facilities provided in the staff quarters of Federal Polytechnics Bida, assessed the performance level of the existing staff quarters of the Federal Polytechnics Bida, evaluated the levels of users’ satisfaction in terms of design and functionality and examined the correlation between the level of building performance and the users’ satisfaction. Primary and secondary sources of data were gathered. Sixty-two (62) questionnaires were distributed to the residents of The Federal Polytechnic staff quarters made up of 4, 3, and 2 housing units A total of fortyseven (47) questionnaires were returned representing a response rate of 76%. The data was gathered by the use of questionnaire and observation schedule and the descriptive and Pearson r correlation in SPSS software was used to analyze the results. Result gotten from the physical observation and walkthrough survey show that due to lack of landscaping in the staff quarters there were lots of grown up weeds and unregulated agricultural activities around and too close to the apartments. This can breed reptiles in the quarters.
