Shea's place is located in the West End in a prime location, awesome building with a great rooftop terrace with pool. Shea was helpful and communication was quick and easy. He accomodated me with a late check-out which was really appreciated and came by to check on a heating concern i had. I would recommend this place to everyone.
One thing to note is that contrary to other AirBnBs, there were storage spaces and furniture in the apartment that were not empty and cleaned for guest's use. I was a bit disconcerted when 2 of the 3 drawers in the nightstand were filled with junk such as old telephones, cables, etc. A huge hutch was filled with more junk and personal papers, the only drawer in a desk was full of miscellaneous things, and half of the entry closet is filled with Shea's personal belongings and clothes. The closet was also mostly filled with things and it was a little messy. That was rather odd to me. It didn't prevent me from using the space, because i was there for only 3 weeks, but it would have definitely been a problem if i had stayed longer. When paying these kind of prices you expect to have complete use of the entire space and for it to be sparkling clean.
The important spaces like bathroom, kitchen were sparkling clean as Shea had thouroughly cleaned before i arrived, but i had to empty the drawers in the bedroom and then clean them with Windex and paper towels because there was dust, crumbs, stale elastics broken in pieces etc, before i could use them to store my socks and underwear in it, and both drawers were filled to the brim with random things. There was dust in some places, i didn't mind, but i'm sure some more picky travellers would have complained. I was a bit annoyed at having to do some cleaning, as i was already paying a cleaning fee on top of the rent price.
Other than that i have no complaints at all. The apartment had all the dishes, towels needed, kitchenware, there is a laundry room on the same floor with an electronic pay card, and the building is secure and quiet at night. You have a magnificent view from the living room bay window and if you open the bedroom window at night you can hear live music on Jim Deva plaza, and see the rainbow lights on Davie Street. I would definitely stay there again.
