    The kitchenette and cookware/tableware are great. Extra bed option and good communication. Double washroom is a plus. Convenient location and affordable price.

    We stayed next to Robert L. Stanfield airport, 19 miles. China town restaurant was easy walk to the apartment, so we could reach it fast. View from the room was great...

    My friends and I had a great stay at Mount Saint Vincent University. the staff was friendly and the dorm was quiet and felt very safe. We loved that each of us had our own room to relax and sleep in after our busy days. the price was very affordable and the Wi-Fi was extremely fast. the layout of the room was perfect for our needs, with plenty of space and two bathrooms. Having a kitchen to cook our meals in was a bonus and allowed us to save money on eating out. we had a comfortable and enjoyable stay. Cons: Nothing to be said. 🤷‍♀️.

    The kitchenette and cookware/tableware provided in the room were a great convenience. the price of the stay was also very affordable. the location of the hotel was very convenient, with easy access to nearby attractions and amenities.

    The beds were not very comfortable, which made for a less than ideal stay. the bed linen and towels provided were worn out and not very clean.

    We loved the comfortable and spacious flat, perfect for our family of 3. Having single rooms and 2 bathrooms was a big plus. the living room provided a common space for us to relax. the availability of washing machines in the laundry room was really convenient. We also enjoyed the peaceful location, with beautiful views from the campus hill. It was great that we could easily get around Halifax using public transit with the bus pass we bought. the free transit on Fridays and free ferry rides on Fridays and Saturdays were a bonus for our low-budget trip. a great experience lodging in student facilities.

    Felt very well taken care of, nothing to complain about.

    The location of the residence is ideal, with easy access to downtown Halifax. the front desk personnel were welcoming and the residence was clean and relatively quiet. the view of the pond out back adds a nice touch to the overall ambiance.

    The beds in the residence are quite uncomfortable, with hard and lumpy mattresses.

    the front desk staff were welcoming and helpful, and the residence itself was clean and quiet. It was also conveniently located, just a short drive or cab ride away from downtown. the view of the pond out back was a nice bonus, and the price was very affordable. the full kitchen available on my floor was a great amenity, and the strong WiFi made it easy to stay connected. Check in and out was a breeze, and overall, it was a comfortable and convenient place to stay.

    The water drains in the bathtub and sink were quite slow, which made it a bit inconvenient. everything else about the stay was perfect.

    The dormitories at MSVU are comfortable and well-equipped for guests with families. the kitchen provided everything we needed to cook our own meals, and the spacious living room accommodated all four of us comfortably. the location is convenient, with nearby grocery stores and restaurants.

    Felt very comfortable, had nothing to complain about.
