Excellent alternative to a hotel and in fact better esp for a family with teenagers. Breakfast was delicious and the staff were far more helpful than in any hotel

The property look nice but the cleanliness of the suite we stayed in wasn't so good. The washroom sink is not draining well and it takes forever to actually drain all the water out just from washing my hands. The cleaning ladies was supposed to come clean the room every three days. They never come clean our room after the first time of cleaning. So the last 4 days of our stay the garbage was pile up in the trash can and we ran out of the toilet paper that they were supposed to give to us.

Great for large family on a budget
The college dormitory was fun for my kids and for a family of eight, having four connected rooms with a common space and two bathrooms was great! The kids enjoyed foosball, ping ping and arcade games for free. Security was great too! However, the beds were awful. Thin mattress on springs like a trampoline and short bed. Breakfast was basically fruits and some bread with most gone at an hour to go. I expected more from a college which teaches hospitality as a degree, like comfort and good interesting food. I am a somewhat big guy so the beds were painful for me... but a large family of small people would likely enjoy it.

Great option as we were doing a conference nearby. We had so much space and each had our own room and bathroom which was great! The beds are hard rubber mattresses as used in student housing. Just be aware you’re not sleeping on a sleep number bed!

Had a mixup with my reservation dates. Than ks to the front desk staff and managers, everything was sorted out quickly and efficiently and didn't cause the stress it could have. The ameneties are great. Very clean and spaacious rooms with àstove, fridge, microwave etc. Bring your own cookware though, as you won't find basics like tensils or plates in your room.

The place is actually conveniently located, clean, and equipped. The staff was really great, including in the student restaurant. Only downfall is the terrible mattresses, but it’s a student residence, can’t expect tempurpedics!

We felt very uncomfortable as soon as we opened our room door. There was no TV in the room. The bed was intolerable since it was hard, caused my daughter a lot of itching and sleeping problems she wouldn’t fall non stay asleep. There was no telephone device in the room. We were told by the receptionist that the room is designed for students.

Not good enough
Beds are uncomfortable Very noisy late at night, students playing football at 00.30 in the courtyard, had to complain as couldn't sleep Breakfast wasn't as expected Choose 3 items from a shop style counter, OK for a very light breakfast, but not if you've got long journey ahead Also used as an immigrant place to stay Not stated on the website, this should be mentioned, it made us feel slightly uncomfortable

Extremely Dissatisfied, Never recommend
It should not be called as a serviced apartment at all as no facilities in Kitchen. Also like Hotels, they do not provide you towels or toiletries daily. Cleaning is also done weekly and no broom etc is provided the area is quite windy and apartment gets very dirty. Breakfast is a joke, they charge so heavily if you compare it with other hotels without Kitchen (plus Hotels.com charged CAD170 extra compared to what hotel price was - and refused to give any price guarantee here). All in all, not for family; book only if no other hotel is available and call hotel directly you can save 40CAD per night.

The Illusionary Hotel
This property is not a hotel. It is a student dorm that is being marketed as a hotel. The service is sub par at best. The staff is comprised of students, that for the most part are assigned a shift but have little or no direction as to what is expected of the position. These students have no experience as to how to offer help or render any services to their guest. The property had three fire alarms that were activate by the children of the resident students during our stay. The staff and management had no idea of how to interface with their guests during these evacuations. The student staff treats their guests as just another student and does not display any level of professionalism. The beds in the rooms are ones that would be found in a student dorm, a steel frame with a mattress, no box spring set and no additional bedding. The bathrooms lack towels, toilet paper, and are not well ventilated. Any requests for additional toiletries were seldom met or had to be repeatedly asked for. This property should not be listed on Expedia as a hotel, it is not one and is only one by a cleaver marketing campaign that should be avoided.

They would not honor the amount agreed upon with hotel.com. We had to argue for two hours, with hotel.com on the phone telling them that they need to honor the price. In the end we ended up paying extra out of exasperation. Not cool at all.
