Guest Reviews
- William (6/5): - Old buildings poorly maintained. Access card swipe is not user friendly and a hassle quite frankly.
- Martin (10/5): - Duperb
- Lynda (8/5): - Everyone is friendly and helpful. Rooms are simple yet quite adequate. Full bedding, towels and mini toiletries were included.
- Amine (10/5): - Perfect for small budget vacation
- Bradley (8/5): - Checking in was very confusing. Not very specific on the steps to take on arrival. Needs to be more specific on directions.
- Lang (10/5): - What I like the most is safety and quietness.
- Darren (8/5): - Stayed here in July. Staff were friendly. Campus was quiet. Very safe, you basically need your room key to get in everywhere.
Rooms are dorm like, concrete walls. Room had a fridge and microwave, no tv.
Overall I would stay again
- Jeyakanthan (2/5): - I don’t like it anything. No water in washroom and trying to charge my phone the electric port is not working
- William (10/5): - Bare-bones, but does the job if you are attending a conference on campus.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - It was central to where i need to go....The rooms didnt seem to be finished....there was some parts of the wall that was concrete....
- Verified traveler (8/5): - I loved thelocation. The vibe with all the summer students and other families. We visited the art gallery that was nearby in another residence, which we really enjoyed.
I didn't like that there was NOthing in the kitchen. If you say there is a kitchen, people will automatically presume there are some dishes and cutlery. There was NOTHING. Nor was there communication to say there is nothing, BRING ALL YOUR OWN STUFF.
- Verified traveler (6/5): - Room wasn’t clean; however, staff were helpful. Basic amenities included
- Verified traveler (10/5): - This stay was exactly what i was looking for. Comfortable, clean and safe place to stay over night. Great value.
- Sheila (8/5): - Good value for the rates. Easy for those who like to eat in. Distance to park made getting food and luggage in and out.
- Muyuan (10/5): Good stay - it is really good to stay here. Accommodation is secure. Two keys are given which first one is for main door and second one for personal room.
They also have food court which provides all you can eat food with charge.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Good clean rooms-bed not great. Has full fridge and microwave in kitchen area of room,bathroom has shower.
It was difficult finding res at first. You can get anywhere on university via tunnels.
YV in common area at end of hall.
Not much food to get after cafeteria closed at 1900 hrs.
No mention of bars by booklet in room or when you check in they say no booze in rooms but no way to check lol
- Verified traveler (10/5): - I like everything about Campus. great organization, atmosphere, great food
- Verified traveler (2/5): - The parking lot is kind of far from our residence. I confirmed with the receptionist several times if I could drop Off My luggage anywhere nearer But was replied with NO. It was actually YES. This misleading almost ruined My holiday when we Had to carry our belongings walking in a hard Rain for a few minutes.
- Verified traveler (6/5): - This place is for students, not families. You need your key cards to often. To enter the building, to enter the floor, to enter your suite and also to enter each bedroom. And you cannot deactivate your bedroom lock. So if you go to the bathroom in the middle of the night, don't forget your key card! The parking is at a 5 min walk from the residence and there's no place to park your car to unload.
On the other hand, the location is really nice, so walking to the parking was nice.
- Jan (8/5): - Pleasant accommodation on university campus with good public transit and nearby parks. “Kitchenette” is misleading as there are NO dishes or utensils or cleanup supplies and the only method of cooking is microwave (not even a kettle).
