We stayed 2 weeks in the cozy Alberta Arts Abode. It in was a great walking neighborhood and we solely relied on public transportation. We shopped at the local coop. for our food and took advantage of the Sunday farmer’s market only a few blocks away. The abode was small but adequate for 2. A real plus is having access to a very nice stacked washer and dryer, especially for a long stay. Some guests might find the bedroom situation hard to manage as you have to crawl over your partner to get out of bed. The abode is in the daylight basement of the house so you do get some upstairs noise but it did not disturb us unduly. You don’t have much of a view except the short driveway but then you will probably be out seeing the city most days. Be sure to experience fine dining at the Swiss Hibiscus and visit Peninsula Park with its rose garden.
