Disliked: Amenities
The blanket smells of body odour. The shared kitchen has no kettle for boiling water, zero plates, bowl, spoon, etc. Two single use plastic cups were in the room, that all. I was given a room on 4th floor, there was no hot water the night I checked in, so I couldn't shower. The coffee and tea on offer was in a different building block, to access it I must get down from 4th floor, walking out the building where my room is, and through a large open space to another building to the reception area. Because there were no areas to sit, once you get your coffee, you must take it elsewhere to drink it. The check in was difficult too, because the buildings are looked the same and signage for check-in isn't obvious. I paid over $140 per night of stay and got an experience that was worse than accommodation I paid less than $80 for a night!

This is a true campus experience. That being said the rooms and bathrooms are clean. You are a two minute walk to the Main Street. You are a 10 minute drive to shopping.

It's a perfectly functional place to stay. Don't count on using the kitchen because they don't supply plates or cutlery. The bathrooms are a little dirty. But overall, it's a decent place to stay for lower cost than most other accomodations in the area

Good value

Comfy and quiet, this is a great idea for the value. If you don’t mind sharing the bathroom then you’re ok with this type of accommodation. Friendly reception.

Was given a key that would only unlock my room door, it wouldn't unlock the door to the building. So essentially I was trapped up in my room. Found this very strange and didn't see anyone else dealing with this issue and it was not resolved. I received the worst service of my life and asked for a refund and left.
