A delight for any traveler!
Pros:

I loved the whole essence of the place! Its history, its vibe, the path and the grotto, the beautiful chapel in the seniors’ residence, the comfort of the room and single bed, and the kitchen and shower facilities

Cons:

Nothing is coming up for that
The only 2 things were minor:
1) I am from out of town, so when I sat down to eat my dinner, I was excited to eat and read the little list that stood on all the tables about all the happenings going for the month in the area. However, I soon realized the August list had not been updated to September yet (and it was September 10!)
2) very loud air conditioner in the room - I chose to turn it off and open the window - which is my favourite thing to do anyway! And the evenings are nice and cool anyway

Cheap and cheerful.
Pros:

Has full kitchen with fridge freezers to use. Lots of space for cooking and eating. Has shared lounges with sofas and TV. Don’t like the shared bathrooms - inadequate privacy. Housekeeping doing an awesome job.

Cons:

Lockable shower rooms would be good in the communal bathroom. Shower area could use some bath mats, shower gel, shampoo etc.

I would highly recommend it for visitors or people that need a place to stay well loved ones are in
Pros:

Excellent location
Within walking distance of University Hospital

Cons:

The freezers were completely full of food. There really was no room for anymore. I was just wondering if some of the people have left the premises and didn’t clean out their food. This would make room for others to place their food in the freezer.

Nightmare
Pros:

Nothing

Cons:

Rooms were dirty. Air conditioning didn't work. Guest was told to "open a window". Guests were forced to use the public washroom - with no shower - in the lobby.
