The answer

If the kitchen floor is clean, or if prayer rugs can be used, then there is no harm in praying in the kitchen when a mosque is unavailable, and the manager's permission is not required. It is preferable to negotiate with the dormitory manager to designate a hall for prayer, so that the call to prayer (Adhan) and prayers can be established there, for the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "There are no three in a village or desert in whom prayer is not established except that Satan has overcome them."
