Reviews
Laura from United States – 18 February 2025 (10/10)
Location and definitely a charming house! Updated kitchen and super comfortable living room. Felt very nostalgic
What could be improved: By a bus stop, so a little noisy but we mostly managed to sleep through it. Definitely not an issue that would make us not go back. The parking is extremely tight and hard to get out of. I have a Mazda CX9 and the length was fine but had to let people out to park, about 2 inches on each side. City living!Mel from United States – 25 November 2024 (10/10)
A beautiful home – great kitchen! – in a beautiful location. We were in walking distance of lots of great food and a grocery store.
What could be improved: Watch out for tiny stairs! Older home for sure, but in truth, for us, nothing to dislike.Karen from Canada – 4 October 2024 (8/10)
House was beautiful inside. Was very close to main transit so it was easy to get around city.
What could be improved: There was a lot of street noise all day and night. TV in bedroom doesn’t work unless your able to figure out you can turn on by power button on the side. Even then, only gets 6 channels and none of them very good. The converter brand doesn’t match the TV brand. We couldn’t figure out how to make the lights in the entrance way work.Mazy from United States – 7 February 2025 (10/10)
