The location was walking distance from Whyte Avenue which had a lot of great shops and restaurants. Free street parking around which was appreciated though it does fill up fast, so sometimes had to park a little further away. The place was spotless and felt like we were the first guests to stay there! The living room and kitchen was very spacious. The only drawback was the smaller bedroom had the HVAC fan system (?) in it, so was very loud unless you turned the whole system off. Other than that, we had a pleasant stay!
