Pro - It had lovely walking trails nearby that were easy to get to. Fans were provided. Con - was unsure is access to the meal hall was included and was to shy to ask. Beds were also hard and high and awkward to get into. Almost needed to ask for a stool.

It was a college dorm room. Not much else to say. For $48 US, it served it's purpose. Showers and bathrooms coed. The woman who checked us in was very nice and the kids on campus were helpful in directing us where to check in . Downtown Truro has a beauriful little arts center where we caught a lical Cuban concert. Found a great cafe Novel Tea, and had a good dinner at a restaurant 200 yards from the theater.

This was the first place I have ever stayed with gender-neutral washrooms and shower facilities. In both spaces, the toilets and showers are individual stalls, but the partitions are not floor-to-ceiling. While I didn't encounter any issues in these spaces, this may concern some, and the listing should reflect that.

Basic, simple, clean rooms with coed washrooms and showers. All could use an upgrade with a bit of fresh paint and some modernization (especially the showers)

A great budget friendly option. Clean and basic. We were only there to sleep as we had a busy weekend off-property. Check in was easy and staff were friendly. Checking out we just left the key in the room as directed. Cosmetically, shower stalls didn't looking very appealing, however the water pressure was amazing!

The residence is old and run down. They placed us in a room right beside other noisy occupants. They could/should have spaced us out more to avoid disturbing each other. Would not stay here again.

It was a university residence, so I feel we got reasonable value for the price we paid. Staff was very friendly. Lights next to the bed would have been an appreciated plus.

Cheaper place for sleeping
I was passing through town and this was a relatively cheap place to stay. It was $60 for the night. I basically had a whole floor of a dorm building to myself. Despite the lower price I tend to think it wasn't really a great value. I could've stayed for less and had a better experience at an Air B&B. There's no TV. No soap or shampoo. They do supply towels and wi-fi. It was kind of quiet and creepy in there. It was a reminder of how crappy dorms are in college. I might stay here again if I just needed a bed and a roof over my head but I am not looking back on my time here with fondness. It was a bit of a bummer.

Great inexpensive spot to lay your head. Everything was really clean and it was an easy check-in. Some people complained of the co-Ed bathrooms, but it wasn’t a big deal for us. Would stay here again next time I’m looking to stay overnight in Truro. :)

Great place to stay on a budget. Very clean. Free parking, WiFi and laundry! Bathrooms and showers are all stalls and coed, which may be uncomfortable for some people. Take a robe and a way to hang toiletries if needed. My building was not accessible, but others may be.
