After traveling for 15 hours this was the perfect place to stay. The shower was wonderful. Each room was beautifully decorated. Bed was so comfortable. It's worth the hour commute into the city for an amazing price and great quality.

Late communication but very nice stay

We didn't get early check in instructions, and I panicked a bit when we didn't hear back until the day of. However once we checked in the property was beautiful and easy to use. It was comfortable on a very hot couple of days, and well appointed for our family of 3. Beds were comfortable, good size and affordable. I'd highly recommend.

Cute place!

This is a great little quiet place! Clean, nice neighbourhood, listing looks just like the real thing. I stayed here with my teenager for a sports competition nearby and it was a perfect place for us to cook healthy meals and test comfortably! Wish we had more time to check out an art class. Would definitely stay here again!

Eras Tour Stay

We stayed here while we were in town for the Eras Tour in November 2024. We absolutely loved our stay. It was a great and affordable alternative to the busy and expensive down town. Getting down town was very easy using the transit system, which is a quick walk away.There are a lot of cute restaurants and shops within walking distance.The unit was very clean, cute, and decorated nicely.Communicating with the owner was easy, and we really enjoyed our stay. We would definitely stay here again!
