For the price this place was perfect clean simple liked having separate sleeping areas for each bed. It wasn’t really a room for relaxing though but for a clean safe place to stay while exploring Halifax, it was perfect room didn’t come with water, but it does have a fridge you have to be prepared for communal washrooms on each floor.

The rooms were clean, the check in and check out was smooth. The washrooms even if shared were clean. They may have limited fans for got summer days, so it pays to ask ahead for them. Overall, this would be my go to pick when I visit Halifax since the price and quality are unbeatable!

Very quiet but bathrooms on 4th floor could use more attention. Room was clean and it’s good for a single traveler. Keep expectations low and treat it like camping.

Can't beat this place for a cost-effective way to discover Halifax. Very clean, staff helpful; internet was difficult to access and beds not overly comfortable. But hey, it's a university residence!

Very affordable and great value. Beautiful buildings on campus. Easy check-in process. 25-minute walk from downtown, or an easy 10-minute $3 bus ride with very regular service. Only concern was the fact that there is very little bedding - worth asking for an extra blanket at reception

Staff are helpful and friendly. Rooms are no frills but clean. The shared bathroom on my floor was clean but the shower area was a bit cramped and larger people may have some difficulty. Luggage storage for an extra $10. Maybe not cozy enough for a longer stay but it was a good value for 1 night.

This is a great place to stay if you're on a budget. The King's College campus is beautiful. The student staff are always warm and helpful. It's not a luxury hotel, it's a student dorm with shared bathroom facilities. But it's fine and it's cheap and it offers everything I need so it's where I stay whenever I go to Halifax.

Inexpensive and d walkable to most all amenities. I ended up using a laundromat tgat is 20 minutes walking distance as the laundry facilities here required a $10 credit card that is purchased in another building.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
The desk staff were extremely helpful and provided the relevant information. The room was clean and fairly spacious. The mattress was very soft but that is to be expected from a dorm room. There were strange sounds I could hear throughout the night and at times even though signs were posted doors would still be closed loudly at night. Finally, the room could do with a bit better ventilation because it smelt a little like a gym. Overall, the experience was satisfactory and affordable.
