The location was absolutely perfect. The suite was beautiful and well kept. It was clean, easy to find, and was as advertised. It was the perfect location for my friend and I to stay while we were in Edmonton for a weekend course. Would recommend!

Cosy basement apartment
Perfect location for proximity to the U of A hospital. ($8.00 cab rides)
Brand new everything! All amenities were top notch. Parking in front was always available.
Forced air heating and in-floor in the bathroom made it super cozy, even when it was -45c.
Storage closets and drawers for clothing are plentiful and not really shown in the photos.
Great spot. You should stay here!

Loved it so much, I stayed there twice.
I was happy to find a place to stay so close to where I was taking a course. I stayed for 6 nights with a weekend break in-between. I was relieved to discover that the pictures online accurately represented the space. It's comfy, has a great shower, a washer & dryer, and a blender (which I desperately needed as I forget my own). Since I was too exhausted after classes to do anything, I was grateful that this property is acomfortable place to be. The neighborhood is safe. The owners are extremely communicative and accommodating. I would 💯 stay again!
