I rented this apartment for my parents who came to visit for over three weeks. Overall, it was a positive experience. The apartment looked just like on the photos, clean and stylish. Christine was a responsive host, answered several of my questions ahead of time and over the first few days of my parents' stay, until they got completely settled.

She also reacted quickly when a couple of days into their stay, my parents discovered a mess left by a previous tenant that the cleaners didn't catch. We talked about the issue within an hour, found a quick fix and then Christine came by the following day to make sure everything was clean.

The neighborhood around the apartment is very nice, with quiet walkable streets. There's a grocery store and a couple of neighborhood restaurants and shops within a 20-minute stroll. Everything else is within a short drive away - downtown, more shopping, etc. The only issue is that the duplex where the apartment is located sits right next to a highway that also has train tracks and the highway is currently undergoing improvement, so there's construction vehicles, noise and mud/dust in close proximity. There's nothing the host can do about this and we knew all this before we booked, because in our case it was important that my parents stayed closer to the neighborhood where we live. I am taking off a star because my parents said it was pretty noisy at night, they could hear the road and the trains, but, thankfully, no construction noise (I think all work takes plays during the day). Again, not the host's fault, and may not be an issue for everyone.

All in all, the apartment had everything my parents needed, it was comfortable, stayed warm on cold days in late Feb-early March and everything in it worked (Wi-Fi, plumbing, heater, etc). Thanks!
