Not really a penthouse. Area was pretty sketchy. Parking only two blocks away but uncomfortable leaving car there overnight. We were surprised that there was no closet or dresser or extra towels although we were there for a week.
Location was good in the hip North End with several restaurants, bars and cafes nearby. Not much of a patio or view and a chair or two would help.Biggest issue was a non-responsive owner when we realized the kitchen was missing pans to cook with and lightbulbs. After requesting these we still haven't had a reply a month later.
Beautiful place it is very nice, cozy and clean! Location is near everything. The check in instructions were very clear as well. We will be coming here everytime we comme to Nova Scotia!
The suite was everything that we needed, clean and quiet. The walk from downtown was a bit further than we had realized, probably because of the hill but doable. The neighborhood is a little sketchy, which made us a bit uncomfortable walking back after dark.
GREAT stay, Perfect location and everything you need and more included!
There is face cloths and extra bedding for the sofa! Disregard the other reveiws about not having it. I checked in really late due to so much road construction and needed assistance getting in. I was able to contact the managment and got in without much of a wait! Maybe a total of 3 min! The paid parking is about 20 per day! Totally resonable! Everything about this property was great. We had such a deep sleep as its so quiet ! Nice light blocking cutains. Affordable pricing! A must have is their bistro downstairs! Wraps are huge and fresh baked begels with a strong drip coffee that gets you on your feet! We really enjoyed our stay! Two sets of stairs to get in with a beautiful veiw of the harbor.
Parking is limited, especially during weekdays 8-5, but there is public parking nearby (unknown cost, we were out and about). The harbor view is off a fire escape, quirky and fun; ferries run every 15 minutes and sometimes you get a larger ship. There is a Salvation Army nearby; I'll leave it at that. Great location as a hub for things to do in and around Halifax.
We were very comfortable with the accommodations. It was handy to where we wanted to be. Convenient to the waterfront and citadel, good restaurants. Unfortunately we didnât get to the Daily Grind cafe. We particularly slept very well. Parking was definitely a challenge but we got the hang of it.
