The location is great! Close to downtown entertainment area. We are a little busy so there is no much time to visit other facilities, I.e., Gym and dining area.

I am Dalhousie Alumni, so I wanted to show my daughter the campus, I thought staying in the dorms would be fun. The service was great, but the room was less than mediocre for the price. $314 including tax for 2 nights. The shared washroom we knew about, and yes there were towels, but nothing else in the room. I feel like there can be more effort put in to the summer accommodations for the price they are expecting. I was grateful for the fans, as it was very hot. Nothing included. It used to be less expensive to stay in the dorms. Now, I would definitely opt for a hotel. I’m sorry for the negative review.

Colleague and I stayed at Howe Hall for a conference. We called the front desk every single night for noise disturbances - drunk visitors wandering the halls and making a ruckus at 3AM. Staff didn’t do a thing about it. We had to ask twice to change rooms, and our electrical outlets didn’t work! Won’t be back.

I think this is a really great alternative to a hotel! I would definitely recommend this to anyone coming by for a shortish stay, and the staff is very polite and kind. Only thing to write home about was the shared bathrooms. Though they were clean, the motion sensor lights and the half open doors are terrifying at night lol. Other than that, great alternative!

Really solid cheap stay in a prime location for enjoying downtown halifax. Access to dalplex is also a really nice accomadation. Only downside really is that the higher floors get hot in the summer and the fan is pretty small
