We landed in YYJ without accommodations, Alex was quick to respond to my inquiry. He met us at the condo, a short time later, and gave us a full brief of things to do and places to eat. His condo is just like the pictures and is in a great location, by the Swans Hotel and Johnson Bridge, with a picturesque South view of the harbor and all of the action on the water and in the air. I would stay at Alex's place again. It really is in a great location, just a short walk to everything!
I recommend John's Place for breakfast instead of the trendy Jam Cafe.
Irish Times for burgers, fish n chips, beer and live Celtic bands at 9pm.
Bard and Banker for steak, grilled cheese and margaritas.
Ill Terrazzo for Italian
Kid Sister, for home made ice cream, in the famous Fan Tan Alley in China Town.
