The accommodations at UBCO are well equipped, clean and perfect for quick stays or longer durations. There are different configurations of rooms available. Highly recommend it for an affordable vacation. As it’s summer there aren’t really any food options but the Airport Plaza is close with some decent choices, plus a Nesters.
