Residence & Conference Centre - Ottawa West

I guess I didn't understand it was a college dorm before I booked, but even as a dorm it was disappointing. The hallways smelled like feces, there were parties happening in rooms and hallways were loud, the rooms were gross and literally falling apart. There was a tack pinning the wallpaper back on the wall in 1 of the 2 rooms in the unit we rented. $126 was OUTRAGEOUS for how horrible the accommodation was.

Great location, remember this is a Residential area for university students and not a hotel, but for the price and service its valuable

We will not come back. This is not a hotel but a student dormitory and is severely lacking in maintenance. It is extremely run-down, with dirty and sticky tables and chairs. The towels are also dirty, and the room has an unpleasant smell. I had to buy air freshener myself to freshen up the room.The service is also very poor. During my stay, on multiple occasions, staff members entered my room without knocking, which made me feel unsafe. Especially on the last day, when check-out was at 11 o'clock, a man barged into my room at 8 o'clock without any communication and left upon realizing someone was there. Then at 9 o'clock, he entered again and stood next to my bed to inform me that I needed to check out today. It was terrifying. I was still asleep, and a stranger was standing right in front of me. The room is clearly is still occupied basic on our things in the kitchen,but he still come and opened my room door. Not recommended place.

Good accommodations for students but many of the rooms need to be redone, otherwise all in all good place to be

Place was reasonable clean.Kitchenette was fine but no cutlery.Beds were uncomfortable too small for two adults. Two small flat pillows per bed.Way too warm. AC came on occasionally but it was terribly warm in the rooms. I was awake all night sweaty & clammy. Debated going out to my car to cool off & sleep.Guess it depends on how cheap is acceptable for a person. For $20 more we could have gotten a nice hotel room & actually SLEPT

Stay away! RUN! from this student hostels listed among hotels. My family booked this place thinking it was a hotel only to findout that it was actually a student hostels.The stuff, including the young (inexperienced) manager were very unprofessional. The place has no parking, you have to pay for parking.Tried to cancel because of no parking since I had my family of 5 with me they refused to cancel since I was 5 minutes late for cancelation. They charged me for one night without shame, but it was worth losing that money than stay at this unclean hostels listed as hotel. Stay away!

We booked it through booking and it wasn't mentioned anywhere that it was a student dorm, so we were surprised when we got there. Because of that, rooms are very, very basic, there is no dishes and no cutlery in the kitchen. On the plus side, it was the cheapest 2 bedroom apartment" in Ottawa and students at the check-in desk were very nice. I would say if you are only staying for one night and planning to eat out

Best alternative to a hotel in the summer. Excellent rates: nightly, weekly and monthly. Great for families as their suites have two bedrooms, a bathroom, and a small kitchenette with a big fridge and a microwave. There are also two kitchens in each floor and laundry machines on the ground floor. It's a few steps from the College Square, where you could find restaurants, supermarkets and many other stores. The bus stop is right in front of the residence. The staff is friendly and helpful. I made a reservation using their website for 35 nights and stayed there for only 31 nights and they sent me a check of the remaining 4 nights.My friend initially booked a suite for two weeks and when he had to extend his stay, they applied the monthly rate for him and he only paid the remaining amount hr owed them!However, they could do better in terms of cleanliness. The carpets are old and most of the towels offered should be changed. Also one of the elevators was out of service the whole time and when the other one stopped working, we had to either carry the stroller and other shopping items up the stairs or make a long walk around the building to the other elevator!!
