Large & Sunny Beautiful Home #103

The location was great- super close to major attractions in Dartmouth and Halifax. The apartment was very clean as well and the AC units were very appreciated in the summer heat. The listing did say it’s a second story apartment, but it is specifically a 20 step walk up to get up to the apartment that is also quite steep. This was extra difficult since we did have heavy check-in luggage. Also, basic amenities like dish washer pods, cooking oil and paper towels was very VERY limited (if not nonexistent ) so we ended up having to purchase them ourselves. The pots and pans should definitely be updated as well as some were very old and made cooking difficult. Overall a pleasant stay, but would be great if some changes were implemented.

We loved having 3 bedrooms and being so close to amenities and family-friendly spots. A great space for families.

We absolutely this space. It was bright with lots of large windows and spacious in size. It had all the amenities we needed during our stay. The only disappointment was the advertisement stated the beds were supremely comfortable, and they were not comfy at all. Other than that we loved everything about the place and would stay again, but perhaps bring a foam mattress with us for the bed. Easy check-in and check-out. Easy parking and we did not have to pay. We stayed on the weekend, so parking was not an issue, however there is an optical business downstairs, and this may make parking more difficult during the week. The stairs to the apartment are very long and steep, so would not recommend for anyone with mobility or arthritis issues. Nice deep soaker tub. TV has a Firestick, so lots of shows and movies to watch. The advertisement states there is no ac, but we did notice portable ac units in the closets. It is a busy street, so you hear traffic and trains, however everything quieted down my 11 p.m.

We chose this rental because the location was very close to our son’s home. The stay was difficult mainly because the beds were so uncomfortable. My husband and I like to have our own bed and there were 3 bedrooms with a bed each but none were comfortable and my husband especially had trouble sleeping. This, to me, is the most important requirement for a vacation rental. We had driven all the way from Ontario and spent our days with a new baby. We really needed a good nights sleep. The unit was comfy like a cottage with gently used furniture. We had some safety concerns. Stairs leading from parking lot outside to unit were steep and had no railing. longer railing is needed on the steep stairs inside going up to unit. Grab bars should be in bathtub area since tub is a deep soaking tub and difficult to get in. Kitchen counter and bathroom counter had been painted and were very unappealing. Didn’t make me want to cook at all. Washer and dryer were handy to have but the mice and rat traps visible beside them were disturbing to see. All necessary toiletries and household paper items were available so that was good. I am guessing this unit hasn’t been rented that many times. If the owners could fix the aforementioned items we would stay there again. The location was perfect for us.

Couldn't ask for much more. Large and clean space for myself and my two adult sons with three full bedrooms as advertised. I should mention that that the suite is on the second floor with access being a very long flight of stairs so would not be appropriate for mobile impaired and maybe elderly. The suite is near the 'highway' and train tracks so a bit noisy- might be worse in summer if the windows need to be open. An initial problem with not receiving the check in form needed but that was easily resolved with a phone call. All in all recommended- would use again .
