Good practical value

Well managed practical stay. Clean and convenient. A little out of the way without a car. And it is a dorm. But a good value in a city with high hotel rates.

St. Lawrence College Residences

The residence was convenient, well priced and not too bad if you aren't a 5* person. We had 4 adults in 2 double rooms which was perfect. Wish they had a coffee maker and iron but there is a cafeteria in the next building.

Basic, budget friendly, accommodations

We’ve stayed here before, so knew what to expect. Checkin was easy. Basic accommodations, single bed separated by a bathroom with shower only. Bed is ok, linen is ok. Pillow provided is flat - another one would have been nice. Fridge in the room, counter but no microwave, coffee maker etc (which was fine). Laundry and vending machines were available.

It is a dorm converted to a hotel during the summer. It is a very clever idea. The price is fair and the palce was clean. I think it needs a TV in every room.

University dorm room so very convenient to crash for the night. Do not expect the same amenities as a regular hotel but the price makes up for it. Quiet during the summer as the residence is mainly empty. Good room on a budget

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Overall, great place to stay. Rooms have counter with faucet, washroom with shower, and air conditioning. Minor issues: room has only one light, so it's best to bring your own lamp, and each bed has only one thin blanket, so bring extra blankets. Laundry machines work great, but require a card for which you must put a minimum of 10$. Staff was very helpful and friendly. Building appeared well maintained.

You get what you pay for as this is a college dorm. Washroom was stocked with toiletries. Bed wasnt as comfortable to my liking but understood that when making the booking. Close to the waterfront trails which is nice. Defonitely, a great way to help reduce costs.

Good option if you need a quiet place to stay and do not care for luxury. It is a dorm. The room is clean. The towels are really rough. You might want to bring your own. There is a mid size fridge in the room. Note, parking is extra 8$ per day.

This property has single beds (it's a dorm), which are separated. Good to keep in mind if you're staying with a partner.. For a short and affordable stay, it's convenient. At check in, the staff wouldn't honour the price I was quoted on Expedia, and was not very forthcoming with helpful information. But once Expedia contacted the manager, I was politely refunded the difference upon check-out.
