Check in was quick and easy, bathrooms were clean, beds were as comfy as you expect beds to be in a dorm room. Plenty of plugs for your electronics which was nice. Definitely will consider booking again!

This place is cheap which is great. The room was very hot and stuffy. Hard mattress. The bathroom is down the hall and for all genders. I didn't want to shower while someone is pooping a few feet away.

I checked in and left to attend a concert without being in my room more than a few seconds. When I returned, I quickly realized that the heating system was turned on and the radiators here hot. That would be awesome in February but we are in July in a prolonged heat wave. The heaters were overpowering the open window. I had no choice but to leave and I faced a long drive home at midnight.

King’s College summer accommodation staff were lovely. The room I stayed in was noisy, not sure if it was HVAC or what; however I the room was clean and tidy. The bathroom showers could have been cleaner. Over all it was okay and a great price for a short stay in central Halifax.

It was a fun experience to relive my youth by staying in a university dorm ;). The building is old and dated, but it was perfectly safe and adequate for our purposes. I suspect some travellers would not enjoy how basic it was, but I thought it was fin…

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.
