Cons:- /!\ Next guests entered the unit way before our checkout time of 10am, and told us the host said they could drop off their luggage.When asked, the host said they didn't know why the guests did that, because "after 11 they can".When asked again why they even could access the unit and our belongings during our stay, I received a very generic (automatic?) message stating "your safety is our priority" and asking for more details... clearly they didn't give a damn, and either they reuse the same code for all guests, or the overlap is not properly configured, and therefore a major issue.- Living/Bed-room: - Hard and thick pillows - Fitted sheet too small - Bed right next to building entrance, so people going in and out at full volume, slamming doors and climbing loud stairs at any time of day or night - Blinds are messed up, but good curtains in front. No screen on the left window - Having windows open can get loud and isn't really an option at night - Main light is "hospital bright" and tied to the ceiling fan, so no fan at night- Bathroom: - Fan broken - A bit cramped- Yappy nearby dogs and loud upstairs walkers from 7am onwardsPros:- Pretty firm mattress but comfortable- Good curtains- Good shower- Shampoo/body wash provided- Nice central area with lots of options around- Easy check in with door codes (too easy?)No opinion:- Didn't use futon, kitchen, TV or back patio- Didn't have a pet- Unit could be cleaner, but not bad

Very cute little apartment with full kitchen and a tiny patio. We weren't travelling with our pet this time, but it’s very well set up for furry companions, with cat climbing structures and dog beds suitable for smaller to medium sized dogs. It opens onto a busy street, but the Halifax Common is quite close for walks. Despite catering to pets, it was very clean with no odours.

Compact and convenient

Stayed for a week while vacationing in Halifax, found the apartment space clean and well-organized for a relatively small apartment space. I found that there were a few pots and pans left in the kitchen that had either been put back dirty or not washed well, but that was my only cleanliness complaint, other than the smell of dog/cat that was also present, but to be expected for a pet-friendly rental. A really nice bathroom, and I appreciated the bed being partitioned off from the rest of the living room quite inventively with a storage shelf! Would definitely consider staying here again when I come back to Halifax.
