Stay was excellent. Street parking only was a minor inconvenience. Wondering if off the alley parking could be utilized. Host was clear about the parking and we always found a space. We are just not used to thinking about it. Very nicely renovated house.

Lovely cottage to relax in the heart of Old Strathcona
We enjoyed a lovely 5 night escape, from our home renovations in the heart of old strathcona. The property was lovely, exceptionally clean and contemporary in design. Check in and check out was very easy. Dog dishes were provide for our puppy and the layout was very dog friendly. The street was very quiet and safe. It was lovely to enjoy walks in another part of Edmonton. The skyline walks at night we’re breathtaking.

Excellent location in Strathcona
As advertised. Super comfortable beds. Kitchen well stocked for meal preparation. Yes some quirks, like the flooring but appreciate that it’s got the bones of an old house.
