Nobody works here in person...
There are systemic problems. Management responded relatively quickly to problems with lack of emergency numbers to call if there are no staff at the reception desk and the door is locked (and also compensated me for the serious problems that I had). However, there continued to be a lack of staff on the premises. You have to have a cell phone that is charged so that you can call a number and leave a voicemail, then you have to wait for someone to call you back. The lack of staff at the office, even during the posted (and very limited) office open hours is insurmountable if you need staff for any reason.

The property is a typical university residence but a little over priced since parking is a problem and the staff were not really professional. The lack of WiFI in the rooms and lack of plug ins was a problem. It is marginally cheaper than a hotel and more expensive than university residences in downtown London (UK). For me, the value for money was not great and I’d suggest that an Air B&B or regular hotel is a better option.

Underwhelming
This is not a hotel. It is a low grade college dorm room that is rented out when school is not in session. The room was clean, but overall standard was a lone star out of 5. Checking in was unnecessarily cumbersome. In French, we will call this a "petard mouille" (damp squib).

The cheapest joint in town
This hotel is right by the dodgy side of downtown - I was warned that going out at night was not really an option (not that there seemed to be anything to do anyways). The mattresses are little better than giant saltine crackers and it is positively criminal they charge 65 dollars/night and don't offer in-room wifi.

Way too expensive for what you get.
No place to park your car. No TV No wii fii in your room. No air conditionner. It was 35 degree outside. Definetly not worth the price
