Reviews of University of Alberta - Accommodation 2 stars

I liked how it was a quiet location, and that a CircleK was nearby!

It is not the staff's fault, but they didn't have hot water during my stay because of the construction in the building. At least the staff posted notices, of the lack of hot water, everywhere, so the guests knew about it.

Great location at the university

The bed was not very comfortable

Simple dorm rooms with very firm beds, which I like. There is no air conditioning but we asked for fans at the reception desk, which were promptly provided at no charge. The fans made the rooms more comfortable, though still pretty warm during our early July two-night stay. Refrigerators and stoves are in a common area, but I could locate no microwaves.

Microwaves would be a good addition.

The room had a nice layout and was quiet. The bathroom of the accessible room had a wide door, and good accessibility options.

I am a wheelchair user and got an accessible room. The bed was not made when I arrived - I had to make it myself. Which is challenging in a chair. The shower does have a seat, but the shower head and controls are very very far away from that seat, and there is no-where to place one's soap. Some of the building has good accessibility, but the door to the room itself is narrow and very heavy to open, which was a major challenge for me. Also, there is no air conditioning and the room did get quite warm despite keeping the window open.

The staff at the counter was highly un-professional and terrible

The beds weren't at all comfortable. No prope kitchen space, availability of no utensils in the kitchen to warm up the food is a bare minumum, that should ad been there, at least.

The facility and room were clean, nice staff . Walking distance to almost everywhere if you’d like to jog/walk

No shampoo, no microwave , no AC were available . They provided with a fan and you need to buy yourself a shampoo

Excellent choice on campus, and very close to LRT.

The cleaness of room can be improved.

Quiet.

It would have helped to have the street number posted on a highly visible location near the building name. It was difficult to explain to the taxi driver where the place was without a street number to refer to easily.

It's a basic room with a very large wheel-chair friendly bathroom access. A couple of tv rooms on my 5th floor. A kitchen with two large cookers , freezers and refridgeraters and a microwave on my 5th floor. A laundry room on my 5th floor. Window opens to let in the breeze.

Nothing really .
