So, this property is a good bet if you're looking for an inexpensive, no-frills room. If you've got to stay for a while, especially, with the kitchenette in some suites, it could be a good fit for you.
The most important thing to realize: this is a student residence. Picture a dorm, and you've got a pretty good idea.
On the upside .. it's clean, it's convenient to the highway, and the beds are reasonably comfortable.
Just be aware that what you're getting is a very basic room. The kitchenette has no 'accessories' except for the few plastic cups that come with the room. The bathroom has a corner stall shower.
The big one for me: there is no coffee - or even a coffee maker - in the room. Or even in the building. There are a few places nearby, but you'll be driving before you get to have that first sip.

Great place to stay for a quick overnight
This is the 2nd time I stayed at the Residence and it was very comfortable, clean, spacious & safe both times.
Keep in mind it is a student residence and you will see some wear from previous tenants but overall it is very well kept.

Great value for your money
As far as hotel stays go, I stay here quite frequently. It's good quality for the price I pay, and it attracts families and normal folks. I wouldn't hesitate to return when necessary!

Glad we stayed there, very cozy and quiet. Excellent value and friendly staff who made sure to look after all my needs. The front desk was staffed 24/7. Buses running close by. Just steps from the college campus.

Excellent for the price.
If you prefer a very firm mattress you will have an mzing sleep. It was very clean and felt very safe. The rooms do need a refresh and smart TVs. Faucets are 30+ years old, bathroom for sure is very old.
I will stay again 100% because of the safety and price.

Great place to stay. Quieter than most hotels, and reasonably clean. The place is a student residence so its a bit beat up but having two doors to the hallway instead of one really cuts down noise compared to other hotels.
Some of the beds are really creaky but at least you have two to choose from.

Great place for families!
It's important to review a property based on what you paid for it. You can't pay low prices and expect high price quality. The quality was on par with what I paid for the room. The staff is also very friendly, and they do their best to help. I've stayed here in years past, and will continue to stay. It's motel cheap with a slightly higher standard. This place attracts families, and regular folks.

When you arrange to stay at the cheapest accommodations in the town, you’re expectations are low. BUT, in this case the room and staff overly exceeding my expectations! Room was very clean, bed was very comfortable and I was able to sleep very comfortably!

Budget friendly
We were attending a graduation held at the college and being able to stay on campus was convenient and much more budget friendly than a hotel room
Our room was clean and comfortable, had 2 bedrooms a bathroom with shower and kitchenette with
Full sized refrigerator and microwave, convenient for longer stays but are not equipped with utensils or dishes, so remember to bring your own, and a hot plate for cooking meals. There is a tv in the rooms but service not provided, with the free Wi-Fi you could probably hook up a fire tv or dvd

Comfortable pillows. Beds don’t have proper mattress cover so the sheet just pulls off. Good AC. Nice to have full sized fridge. Rooms are run down with peeling wallpaper, sad shower and base cover. Good price for a cheap stay.
