Excellent location to walk around and enjoy the wonderful city of Stratford. Room is comfortable, well stocked and clean. Detail instructions to check-in/out. Beware of the following conditions for 3rd floor unit: 1) smoke smell is noticeable in room and permeates to any clothes taken out of luggage even in short stays. 2) two sets of stairs to reach 3rd floor can be challenging with mobility issues or heavy luggage 3) No front desk or storage room to keep luggage on early check-in or late check-out. It works like an Airbnb, not a hotel. We are thankful for the early check-in granted (not always feasible) and the recommendation to check if a nearby hotel can store luggage (not alwways feasible). 4) No water for about 1/2 hour at 9:00 am. We texted when started and when it came back but did not get any info back.

This is low quality; definitely not an Inn. the room had a musty smell and in mid season expecting guests, it was hot and musty with no air conditioner running, it was a struggle to get the windows open to air it out, the rooms are accessed by dingy dirty steep staircase, no place to park in front and had to carry luggage from down the street, overnight parking is 4 blocks away. the furniture is sparse cheap college dorm quality. the bed fell apart when i tried to move it over and linens were cheap. kitchen had knives, plates, forks but no cooking utensils.

We had a lovely stay. Perfect location for restaurants, shopping and the theaters. Our room was two stories up, which could be difficult and tiring because of the stairs. But it was also very quiet. Thanks for a great stay.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
1) Didn't recieve the access codes until I was in Canada, which made it difficult to open - could have been sent earlier in the day 2) Parking was not 150 yards away, it was a quarter mile to a dimly lit lot; the walk there and back included an old asphalt uphill path with weed clumps, potholes, trip hazards. No place to temporarily load/unload near the entrance except to block traffic 3) The rain caused the marble entrance to be extremely slick, both my wife and I slipped while entering 4) Very steep and shallow stairs up to the third floor 5) Carpeting in the stairwell was disgusting, dirty, stained 6) Three windows, two with shades that only pulled up part way and one shade missing 7) Two dining chair seats were ridiculously filthy and stained, we would not sit on them 8) No shelves or hooks in the bath except one on the back of the door, no place to hang or set a toiletry bag 9) No hand towels 10) No toilet paper holder, toilet paper just sitting on the tank - had to reach around, try not fall off to access it 11) Cheap and sparce furnishings, no thow rugs, cofee table, clock, minimum spent on making it look welcoming 12) HVAC difficult to adjust - didn't know if bumping the temp up or down was working because it so long to notice a difference 13) Definitely different than the photos - what should have been an inviting place, and presented as a boutique upscale (and not inexpensive) space was bland and soul-less, like somebody threw some furniture in a garage or basement

Perfect location. Modern updated bathroom. Plenty of bathroom towels& toiletries. A written instruction guide for use of tv & ac would have been helpful as could not figure out either one. Access to rooms is via steep stairs so definitely NOT for anyone who has mobility issues. .

The location was excellent and the room was large, a king size bed would have been better in that space. It was a tough hike up 2 flights of stairs with our bags.The codes to the place and the room were a bit confusing until I figured out what button to press after. The room was cold, heat didn’t work and there was no soap in the shower. But we had a great time in Stratford

This location is in the centre of the city and made it easy to get to all the events I was in town for. I didn't realize there was no physical reception, but the owners were very communicative and made it very easy to check-in. The room was nice and prepared/neat, though the trash hadn't been taken out, and there were some stains on one of the walls. But otherwise everything else was great, it was comfortable. Quiet during the evening, and many great food locations nearby.

Do not stay there! Access is via carpeted stairwell which is in dirty and deteriorated condition requiring sanding painting and new baseboards. Room is carpeted which is very old, stained and dirty ! No staff on site, security code access to building and the room. Avoid this place.

Lovely spacious room, well appointed with fridge and microwave and a few dishes. Accessible tv but no cable news channels other than clips through YouTube, or at least what we could figure out. Excellent location near restaurants and close to Avon Theatre. Limited help as there is no on site front desk person to for sure assist in an immediate sense, especially at night. My room did not have adequate working blinds to block out the light. However, I liked my room a lot. It was quiet and felt private. It was generally well supplied and had a nice bathroom with walk in shower that worked. It was aesthetically pleasing.

Liked: Amenities
Best characteristic is the prime location. But no on site parking. The carpet is utterly disgusting and needs replacing. Get vinyl planks. The kitchenette is handy, bathroom is nice. TV is in a useless location. Add a chair or loveseat and a small table. Brighten up the place with some light paint. The staircase is dangerously sloped and long and handrail is wobbly. We liked the easy keyless entry. Not a room to relax in at all. Get some better bedding. People don’t want dorm room bedding.
