Price was very reasonable. Apartment was perfect for 4 people but would have liked air conditioning as it was quite warm. It was very comfortable which I would recommend.

Staying for several nights is OK, but only for non-demanding visitors. It is more convenient for students:)

The price is right but you certainly get what you pay for. We booked the 4 bedroom apartment. Location was great and the campus is quite beautiful. However, rooms were not clean, surfaces were sticky. Furniture was stained. Rooms were really hot (no ac). If you are looking for a hostel, this is great. If it’s a hotel you are looking for, pay the extra money and don’t stay here.

Wouldn't recommend this place
Okay first of all, a Construction Company was blasting rock less than 200 yards from my window along with the heavy rock moving equipment going steady?The bed look the same as the ones used at the Paris Olympics? The pillow was flat as a Marshmallow, I did request another one , Gendelman did bring me one. Check myself out before 6:00am the following morning. Now let's talk about your scam , on your website I noticed the price was $56.07 total? Absolutely no mention that it is US funds until I checked-in ? Mount St Vincent University is in Nova Scotia Canada not the United States of America? So would you price in US Currency? To whom do I contact for a refund?
