Staff are there with 24/7 support and were super helpful. Ac unit works SUPER well, keeping it on high will freeze you! Sheets are thin so if you like a thicker blanket make sure to bring one. Wifi was spotty at times but we got by. Great location, the train station on campus was super convenient and easy to get around on. Great choice for an economical stay.
It’s student residence, so expectation is different. But it has everything we needed as traveller, room was clean, location was convenient, and as a very nice bonus, the location is quiet and safe.
Very capable and accommodating staff, easy access on foot to downtown, clean facility and rooms with more than adequate air conditioning, plenty of parking directly adjacent to the facility. Overall good value.
Centrally located. Parked the car and took a short Uber ride to our event. Our room had 2 bedrooms, kitchenette, and bathroom. Super affordable. We will definitely stay here again.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Location and the price are great. Simple accommodations. Staffs are very friendly and helpful.
Really good placefor the price. Perfect for budget travelers. Strategic location, near DT Ottawa. However, the beds are really small. Perfect for 2 people, but a bit cramped for 4.
