Very friendly staff!

It was exactly as expected. Staff were all helpful and courteous and polite. They made sure I had all of the info I needed to access wifi and enjoy my stay.
Victoria, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Good self-catering place near Halifax

Good location. Good place to stay for those who want to do self-catering. Fully equipped with kitchen, dining area and 2 bathrooms. Relatively inexpensive accommodation. Signs of student abuse/neglect but a good stay overall.
David T, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great value for short stay

Dorm room living perfect for cheap short stay. Room had its own sink which was helpful. Bed was small but mostly comfortable. Extremely clean and very quiet. Only issue is a long walk up the hill if taking public transport.

8/10 Very good

It was okay

It was okay for the price. Not a fancy place, but clean and safe.
shahram, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Many of the dishes had barely been washed and the furniture in the sitting area was disgusting/filthy.
Heather, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

It is a fine budget stay. No frills, clean, shared bathroom, friendly and helpful staff, easy access to transit, the mattress and pillows leave much to be desired but it’s a dorm. It was perfect for travelling on a shoestring, but would recommend bringing your own pillow.
