Pros:

Had a great 5 night stay, our room was clean and neat, bathroom and showers clean and well kept daily. Loads of options for entertainment and food within a 15-30 minute walk. There’s a Tim Hortons downstairs, which was really convenient.

Pros:

Great place for the price. Very well kept. Good service at the front desk. Only thing it needs is a fridge (a shared one would have also been ok) and a microwave.

Pros:

It was a pleasure to stay at Saint Mary's Loyola Residence this summer in July for 10 days. It resides close to Point Pleasant Park, the area is tree laden and gorgeous. While I was there, the cafeteria was open, along with a coffee shop with breakfast options, and a convenience store, among other options. I especially loved the staff working at the main desk 24/7. So lovely and kind. One more note, everything was so very clean. The building itself was lovely .

The check-in was easy, the staff was polite, helpful, and made me feel very welcomed. The location is situatated in a beautiful & quiet neighborhood. The building shower and washrooms were well-kept. The property featured a dining hall (very affordable), vending mavhines, a store for small goods and a tim hortons thats fully serviceable. 5 outta 5

Pros:

We just found one microwave in the lounge and nothing in our room to keep food so it was hard to cook something. The room was hot but big and clean. The beds were confortable.

Pros:

A few years ago we stayed at this dormitory with free breakfast. Now the breakfast has additional charge. There is no coffee or tea. We are not going to stay there in the future.

Pros:

As dorm rooms go this was pretty good. There were fans due to the heat wave, and the area was convenient to walk to downtown - probably about 25 minutes. The beds were comfortable and the view took in the Halifax harbour. You also got a birds eye view of the athletics field and we were treated to several mens league soccer games. Kind of a cool element.
The shared bathroom was clean and there was a separate single shower room. There were few people in our pod but there was never a wait for the facilities.
The only negative points were: One of the elevators opened reluctantly and we learned to avoid it in case we got trapped; and the hallway to our pod of rooms had the feel of a prison - low security prison to be sure, but there was a vibe. That said the whoe experience was quite nice. There's laundry facilities readily available on another floor. Parking is right outside the building. If you're travelling on a budget or with a small family this might be a great option for you.

Pros:

It was quite warm in the room, even with a fan going.

The bed was a bit hard. If I stay again I will bring some padding.
