Good practical value

Well managed practical stay. Clean and convenient. A little out of the way without a car. And it is a dorm. But a good value in a city with high hotel rates.
Eric, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Low price. Not far from downtown. Had to pay separately for 24hr parking, which included in/out. Acceptable for overnight stay during travel through Kingston.
Wayne, 1-night trip

Nice place for a stop-over location. Five minute walk from Lake Ontario Park.

Nice location near Lake Ontario park and handy to down town
Elwood, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Loud room.

There was a mechanical system above my room that would kick in and out at night and throughout the night that was loud and unpleasant, and kept waking me. Loud enough that I was able to record it and had the staff listen to it when I checked. I pity the student you will get that room. Otherwise very clean and comfortable room and very central.
Nathalie, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

AC was on and off. Not good with the recent hot weather. Very uncomfortable and humid in room without AC.
William, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Not bad at all for the price I pay for one night in summer. If you are not a picky person, and just needs a place to stay this place it is!

The room was basic but clean and comfortable. Air conditioning worked well. The staff were very friendly. I would stay there again if I was in the area.

Extra charge for parking was an unexpected bummer, otherwise good!
Avesh, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

This was a chance for my grand daughter to see what a college or university dorm looks like - she was impressed and thinks that St Lawrence will now be on her list for 5 years hence. It was very quiet - I didn't even hear the raccoon brigade outside the window during the night! It is very close to the Kingston BMX track which what drew me to the residence, and there was room enough for a race bike in the room. The staff was very helpful with a last minute room for my daughter and grandson. Really nice people on the desk!
Wendy, 2-night trip

Dirty, lights didn't work, tape all over the walls, shower didn't work, bathroom sink shot sideways.

2/10 Poor

Power outage. No AC, No light and Ni elevator.
Bruce, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Bathroom was dirty. Hair in shower and dirty towel on rack. Toilet clogged with first use and when front desk was called we were handed a plunger to clear it ourselves. No service til 7 AM. Really?!?!?! No Tv. No interior door lock. And….. we were never told it was a STUDENT DORM
Kim, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Very appropriate conditions for the cost. Easy access as it's in the college dorms. Beds were a little uncomfy, but that's to be expected with the cost. No complaints.

TV Rooms on each floor should be hooked up for us

We originally booked for a 3 night stay but the Residence and Conference Centre did not have a few items I find essential. I have stayed at 3 other Residence & conference Centers in Ontario and Quebec and they offered TV in the rooms, Ice, and a microwave which I did not get at this Residence and Conference Centre. I would suggest that the TV room be hooked up on each floor with a HDMI cable to easier accommodate streaming since there are no tv's in the room. A Coffee/Tea would also be nice to see in the room, nothing fancy but at least a small coffee station. I was able to borrow a kettle from the main office. Also a microwave on each floor maybe in the Tv Room would have been greatly appreciated since there is note one in the room. The size of the fridge in the room was great. The problem however was there were no ice trays in the fridge and no ice machines in the facility. At a minimum add ice trays in the refrigerator. This facility was the most basic place I have stayed. Very clean and nice, the value for money would be excellent if the items i mentioned were available. We only stayed the one night instead of 3 nights

Good price and location. The beds are comfortable enough, just very high. Pillows are awful.

No microwave in room , small standing shower, do not expect welcome like hotels, not bad .
Anil, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Pour le prix, c’était parfait pour nos besoins. Nous avions seulement besoin d’une place à coucher et nous n’avons pas resté très longtemps dans la chambre. Je ne comprends pas les mauvais commentaires. C’était propre et parfait si tu as seulement besoin d’une place a coucher. Il n’y a pas de télé n’y séchoir mais il y a un gros frigo. Pour le prix, je retourner à cet endroit qui est vraiment très bien.
