How did we arrange the living space? A standard building, like a dormitory? And where did I put the mule?

Well, that's up to you.
You can have barracks or individual rooms.
Whatever is more convenient for the role-playing.

/In general, I'm in favor of separate rooms without amenities. Except for those who are wealthier and the leader; they can have rooms with amenities.
If you don't mind, I'll tie the mule up in the backyard under some kind of platform./
