The university was a nice place to stay. Very roomy and clean. It is halfway between downtown and the waterfront. We were there is the summer and the residence was also occupied by student camps. It is also close to bus transportation so it was very easy to get around. The local food choices were a little limited but what we did find was inexpensive and good. If we were to return, we would stay closer to the downtown core area. Overall a pleasant stay.
A friend and I stayed here while visiting my daughter who is studying abroad. Despite this being a dorm, our room was in a separate wing and offered a bedroom, kitchenette, private bathroom, living/dining area. It was very clean, comfortable, close to transportation and many dining options nearby. We did not use the facilities at all, but were pleasantly surprised at how quiet it was with all the college students. Great value for the money!
Great place to stay, handy to supermarket, easy free parking, close to metro or an interesting 40 m stroll through great neighbourhood to main part of town
