The location is great! Close to downtown entertainment area. We are a little busy so there is no much time to visit other facilities, I.e., Gym and dining area.

Liked: Room comfort
Both rooms (bed and bath) were spotless abs the bed was super comfortable. Great to be able to purchase soap and get Chan’s to do laundry. Convenient to downtown. Despite all this it’s still only a drab but functional dorm room. Would stay here again as it is good value for price.

Simple accommodation with a great location for walking to downtown events, art gallery, theatre and restaurant waterfront. Nothing fancy, perfect if you are out and about all day. Generally quiet at night. I heard faint fireworks one night.
It’s a good place to stay. It’s close to downtown. Price is right. Staff are great. Rooms and facilities do show their age but aren’t dirty by any means. My wife and I stay whenever we can.
Dalhousie summer accommodations were great. Very clean rooms and bathrooms. The dorms were quiet at night. The staff were friendly and addressed any concerns in a timely manner. The food was adequate. Good variety. Overall it was okay and a great price for a short stay in central Halifax.
This is a university dorm, not a traditional hotel. Besides being good value, it was very comfortable. You have access to all campus’s amenities: dining hall, sports plex, library, etc., and it is on the heart of the city. We oarked the car and walked most places during our six day stay.
Great location for a very short visit to campus. The rooms are basically dorm style rooms, very basic. Corridors are noisy, despite quiet hours after 10.00 pm. Room rates could be lower, given how basic the rooms/services are.
Very good service and good price with convenient location.

Staff and property were great. Unfortunately I have asthma and people tend to wear a lot of scent. I had an asthma attack. Except for that evening was great
