We just stayed at Alex's studio for 12 nights. It could not have been more pleasant. Our goal was to be able to walk to visit family, restaurants and interesting shopping. This was no problem.
The accommodations were very nice with a comfortable bed and linens. Although we did no cooking at the studio all the equipment to do so are there.
Would highly recommend this rental to anyone visiting the Alberta Arts District. There is also a bus right out the door that takes you to downtown.
