Dorms Facilities Are Fairly Average/Typical for College. Many Options.
Hofstra has many different types of dorm set-ups from which you can choose. There are the standard singles, doubles, triples and quads in the towers which offer communal bathrooms (and the towers are NOT nearly as bad as some people make them out to be). Then, there are a few different types of suite options. You can live in a single, double or I think even triple within a suite, which is always composed of two rooms and a bathroom. The majority of suites also have lounges, but there are some that do not (and they are cheaper). No matter where you are though, the dorms are fairly spacious which is definitely a plus.

Really Depends.
As far as drinking in the dorms, it really varies on where you are. In first-year housing, everyone's underage, so the school is a bit more on top of drinking in those dorms. Once you get to the towers and other areas that house people of all ages, they're pretty chill as long as you keep the noise level to a somewhat reasonable level. Outside of the dorms, students just have to be smart. If you're walking on campus with a "water bottle" and acting fairly normal, they'll just act like you're drinking crystal light (couch cough. But, if you're being an obnoxious, belligerent drunk, they might just stop and question you about the red juice reeking of vodka in your water bottle.
