Very Good
All reviews shown are from real guest experiences. Only travelers who have booked a stay with us can submit a review. We verify reviews according to our guidelines and publish all reviews, positive or negative.
Basic but also economical, however the showers is Risley hall could use some attention they are very tired, and the kitchen work surfaces didnt seem to be cleaned daily either
Staff were very helpful, the property and room were great value for its price and the area felt safe and in a good location. There's also free parking and staff let us store our luggage for a few hours after we checked out. I would definitely recommend and would stay here again!

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
The property itself was great - clean, modern, safe and within walking distance of most of downtown. The only issue were the beds; the mattresses were insanely uncomfortable and the bedding really thin, which made for some really cold nights. Otherwise, everything was fine.
Very nice option instead of a very pricey hotel. My sister and I spent a few days in Halifax and we each had our own room (typical dorm room) and a connecting bathroom. Very basic of course but great for just having a place to sleep. Very impressed with the cleanliness of the rooms also. Didn’t check out any common areas or kitchen or pool. We would do this again.
My only issue with this accommodation is expedia listing multiple addresses rather than just the one required. A 50 minute walk in the rain rather than what should have been 10 minutes is slightly frustrating.
The staff from dal were A . Expedia, not so much.
Great property. Clean, efficent, queit. The risley hall residence has no airconditioning and they only prpvide one pillow.
Other than that a very pleseant stay.
The facility and room are very clean. If I could use dishes at least a cup for tea ir coffee, it would be nice.

Very basic accomodation. Shared washrooms could have been a bit less stark. Also laundry facilities should have clearer labeling and instruction. Maybe the students get an orientation but the guests have to guess how to operate the machines and figure out which are the washers and which are the dryers. Also doors on public rooms (kitchen, lounge) didn't always open and there was no notice about when those rooms were available for use.
It was super nice and handy to have my own room with a sink. I felt very safe and comfortable. The only thing I did not like and didn't expect is that the kitchen did not have any kitchen wear so I could not cook my own meals. However, I could use the fridge, though it smelled bad and was full of expired and rotten food which made me hesitant to use it.
The staff were lovely and it felt secure. The bed was so uncomfortable that it made it hard to sleep and aggravated pre-existing back problems. I would recommend this accommodation if you are on a budget and don’t mind a less comfortable bed. The location is great and the staff are wonderful.
