University of Alberta - Guest Accommodation

My husband has an overnight stay at the Cross every few months and the guest accommodation at the Lister is perfect for me: just a 5-10 minute walk from the Cross, with excellent parking included and the room is spacious and comfortable - everything I need.

I was great value for the money. I Uses the kitchen. Parked steps away from my room. Room was quiet. Very comfortable work desk and chair.

Basic accommodations. Bed was a single, not made, and it did have a private bathroom. But it was a little noisy from a fan outside in the hallway, no A/C. Could at least have made the bed. This stay was extremely basic in all sense of the word

These are not fancy accommodations, very basic. But the place is clean and quiet. I had a room w a bath. I was at the University for a couple days, out most of the day and evening. It was good for that, I just needed a place to stay.

If you are expecting to stay in a residence room without air conditioning, this will meet your needs. The rooms are small, clean, have lots of drawers and closet space. Towels and linens are supplied. I brought my own fan, which was a life-saver in the +28-30 degree weather. Staff were courteous and helpful. Least expensive parking rates on U of A campus.

Enjoyed the location easy to get the LRT to Downtown and not have to drive. Quiet area at this time of year.

Reminded me of 30 years ago , when i was a university student. A student dormitory , clean , good Internet connection in section where i was staying.a bed a desk a shower and nothing else....

The university residence was handy for me as a visitor to the university but there are very few amenities at this facility. The residence did have a student common area with a Tim Hortons and eating area but the food court closes at 3:00pm each day. The room is extremely basic and has not TV or alarm clock. The bed is a single bed and is very stiff. The room was generally clean but the carpet had numerous stains and the internet was patchy.

Don't stay here. Total waste of money. Room was cold. Plastic bed. No amentaties. No tv. Overpriced. Just aweful.

All was great for the price, the only annoyance was the parking. Because this is also a conference centre, parking can be far from the door. Otherwise great value and location.
