Great choice for family under budget
Definitely a good value for this price. We got a 3 bedroom apartment (no common sitting area though), no TV but I don't use hotel TV anyway. There is a full kitchen so good for family with kids. Also keep in mind there is no A/C. They provide a fan for each room. So check weather condition and make sure you are prepared.

The rooms are simply decorated and large. This was a good place to land for one night with kids. The washroom needed to be cleaned better and that was disappointing. The breakfast that was included was very good and it was fun to explore the university.

The accommodations are unique because they are dorms of St Mary's University Residence. It is unique to be on an academic campus.

Nice quiet neighbourhood, lot of stuff close by, don’t forget to take cooler or small refrigerator with you. No AC. Nights were colder during our stay so table fan worked well. Breakfast was good.

Visiting family in NS and stayed here. Really a unique experience. The only issue, there was a musty odor in rooms and in the building in general. Maybe because of hot weather? Some air fresheners might have helped.

Their way to circulate air in the room - they provide a fan and two windows to open. It did not help. I believe I should have been told before I booked that the mattress was a brick. I sleep on a firm mattress but their mattress was beyond firm. I woke all night to rearrange to find a spot to get comfortable. And the pillows were not much better. They were hard also. I did not have a restful stay. When I checked out I told the staff my opinion of their beds. They told me they were sorry about the bed.
