Tucked away at the end of street with grassland in front, very quiet (saw a deer family there), but also means a few minutes drive to any other facilities. An apartment with 4 single-bed bedrooms, 2 bathrooms and a kitchen with basic cooking kit, simple, clean and spacious. Laundry on each floor and can purchase detergent in case you forget. Both are very reasonably priced. No housekeeping, but reception is there till 10pm and helpful.

Je ne recommande pas cet endroit qui est loin du centre-ville en autobus. Il n’y a pas de restaurant autour et aucune possibilité de manger dans l’établissement. Les indications pour s’y rendre ne sont pas évidentes. J’ai du découvrir le campus pour y arriver. L’endroit était très propre et les personnes accueillantes. Le gardien de sécurité la nuit n’était pas discret. Il parlait devant les fenêtres ouvertes en pleine nuit. Ma chambre était cette à côté des grandes portes qui ont claques à chaque heure puisque les gens allait et venait. Je ne recommande ps cet endroit la nuit si vous voulez dormir. J’ai discuté de cela avec le gardien patrouilleur et il était impoli.

Staff were quite nice but the linen in my room was stained and the fitted sheet... well, it didn't fit. No problem when I requested a new sheet. There is a fridge, microwave, toaster, and kettle in the shared kitchen so that was good. A car really helps if you stay here although there is a bus stop down the hill. For the price, it is worth it.

We got 4 bedrooms for our family (3) so everyone of us had a good sleep. The rooms are clean and there is also a kitchen available. The campus was quiet as it was in summer break of the school.
