The apartment is clean, comfortable, has everything needed and was ideal for a long-term stay. Comfortable bed, fully equipped kitchen, washer and dryer, and the balcony has a great view to enjoy at sunset as the city lights come on. The location is also ideal - just minutes from bus and light rail stops and two major train stations. There is a shopping centre a block away with post office, supermarket and other stores, and it's a short walk further into the CBD (downtown). Lots of good cafes and restaurants in the surrounding issues.
Note - Normally there were no noise issues. The apartment next door is part of an apartment hotel chain that has rooms in the building. When I did have noise issues from guests in there late one night, I notified the front desk who apologised and instantly sent security up to tell them to be quiet. This was only an issue on one night, out of a stay of over 50 nights, and they did something about it immediately.
