Beautiful old building. Roomy, walkable to downtown or easy drive. Can park in convenient lot on weekends and each evening. Seemed like good value. It is a dorm with shared bathroom, but roomy bathroom, never seemed busy.

Not quiet

I might have been unlucky, but our room neighbor started to slam his room door at 6am. The sound was so loud that I did awake in shock every time. That happened about 10 times within an hour.

An adequate place to lay your head. Room was okay, very utilitarian. Wall AC plugs wouldn’t charge my phone. The curtain length allowed outside lighting to invade the room, right at pillow level. Staff were very nice, and it’s preferable to a hostel in my experience.

My wife and I stayed here for the Saturday of the Halifax Music Festival. ALL of the hotels were booked during this busy time of year. While the room itself is basically a college dorm room (no bathroom in the room) it met our needs for a place to sleep for the night. Reasonably priced, good location and pleasant/helpful staff made it a good place for us.
