A great place. It is on a quiet crescent, so the vehicle was safe, and there was no street noise. It is clean and quiet, and Louise is more than generous with snacks, food, and coffee/juice. I would definitely stay there again.

I had a very pleasant stay. Louise is a great host and her cats are adorable. The room has all the things I needed and the neighbourhood is quite and close to nose hill park. There is a grocery store nearby and some shops and the bus brings you downtown directly. I hope to visit again in future
