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.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
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.

Budget basic.

This is a dorm room. No frills, tv, or AC (very hot inside, fan can be borrowed with deposit). Bathroom is not ensuite (shared). Pool is offsite. It is a budget accommodation, but considering how basic, still feels overpriced. Staff initially did not want to honour my hotels.com pricing. The best part about my stay was visiting the KC Irving building and gardens adjacent to the building.

Nous avons trouvé très difficilement le lieu l adresse n étant pas celle du site et l autre fournie apparaissant dans les instructions spéciales consultées tardivement de notre côté ,ceci étant le cas d autres touristes " en perdition" .En fait il faut pénétrer dans l enceinte de l'université et rejoindre un autre bâtiment .Surprise de constater que la chambre correspond à une chambre d étudiant. douche ou baignoire et wc se trouvant à l extérieur de celle-ci. Il n y avait pas de séchoir à cheveux ni de deuxième serviette et deuxième oreiller ce qui manifeste une absence de vérifications avant l arrivée.. Quid si nous étions arrivés tardivement ! En fait la précision de ces points permettrai de mettre en garde des voyageurs relativement âgés.
