Positives
- Excellent central location in downtown Edmonton, with easy access to nearby amenities (though the surrounding area can feel less safe at night).
- Spacious, apartment-style suite that was well furnished and comfortable.
- Well-equipped kitchen with silverware, utensils, dish soap, and a dishwasher, making it easy to enjoy takeout or prepare simple meals.
- In-unit washer/dryer combo was extremely convenient, with complimentary laundry detergent packets provided and additional packets available upon request.
- Towels were refreshed daily.
- The front desk staff were exceptionally friendly, professional, and helpful. They assisted me in finding the nearest supermarket and quickly helped when I accidentally locked myself out of my unit, which really made the stay stand out.
Negatives
- Although a dishwasher and dish soap were provided, there was no sponge because previous guests had scratched the dishes. Personally, I would have preferred the option to hand-wash items.
- The bed was left unmade on two occasions. I'm not sure whether this was an oversight or done out of respect for my privacy, but it was noticeable.
- The lobby was undergoing renovations during my stay, so the entrance and common area were unattractive and not very welcoming. That said, this is likely only a temporary issue and should improve once the renovations are complete.
I would absolutely stay here again if I ever have another chance to visit Edmonton.
