Maybe it is not a very luxurious place, but i think it is the ideal option when travelling abroad as a student, because it gives plenty of opportunities to meet people from other countries. Rooms are medium size. The only problem is that the kitchen is not fully equiped, and the bathrooms are too basic... More

The rooms prison cell small, level of cleanliness disgusting, Student dorm style, the furniture was old damaged and used, mattress delapated and extremely uncomfortable (I actually slept on the floor it was...

Basically, the title says it all. The Residence is in an ideal spot with a decent price for a single room, and is in walking/driving/public transportation distance from all the good stuff. But unfortunately, the rooms left alot to be desired. I walked into my room and almost passed out from shock when I saw that the sheets were covered... More

The rooms are very very old and rusty. You have to use shared bathroom and toilet. There is no cafe downstairs. The receptionists are not well trained and may show signs of ignorance. For instance, they will kick the mail of the tenant back without double check or notice etc. The fire alarm may go off for unknown reasons from... More

The room was adequately heated, and it was nice to have a sink in the room, but the mirror was so old, I couldn't see myself in it, and there was no place to blowdry my... More

I booked with them last year and they took a $600 deposit (1 month stay) from me without sending me any receipt. When I went to cancel my booking (they did not tell me you could not cancel), they only returned half of my deposit. Only then did they send me a "contract" and even then, I cancelled much in...
