Easy check in and check out process. Rooms are incredibly quiet especially for such a central location. Curtains are not blackouts, if that’s something you’re looking for. Excellent value for the price and location.

Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
Clean, quiet, comfortable, and easy to access. Was not sure what to expect, given that it is a university residence, but I was pleasantly surprised. Only feedback is that I would have liked the option to have towels/linens changed or the room cleaned at some point (perhaps halfway) for a 5 day stay. Overall good value and would happily return.

The staff were cordial and helpful. The facility was clean and functional as you might expect of a university residence. Just the basics but when the basics are all you require then this option is an excellent one. Would happily use it again whenever the occasion arises.

Student dorm room with bed, desk, (nasty) desk chair, with free access to washroom, showers, and kitchen. Other guests were respectful and friendly. Bikeshare bikes available right outside the building. Easy to walk to streetcar and busses - public transportation. Would consider staying again. Thanks from Iowa, USA.

The room was perfect for my needs, but the showers were not so clean and the kitchen was terrible (mostly because other residents would not clean up properly, but part of the issue is also that not enough is provided for people to cook and clean).
