This condo is gorgeous. The layout is great. Huge windows on either side of the unit. Great space for a family or 2 couples. In our case, there were 2 couples and we each had our own ensuite. Great kitchen with a large island with all the kitchen amenities you could ever need. The location was amazing, just a short 1.5 blocks to the 'main strip' with a grocery store/liquor store just a block away. Additional parking is available around the building at no cost.
There were only a few kinks.
- The check in instructions are NOT clear. Apparently there was an issue with accessing the building due to a swipecard access not working, however the instructions proceed to show you pictures of how to go in from a side door (which apparently is not the workaround) - so why have these instructions in the check-in email? Naturally one would assume that the main entrance is not working and the side door is the workaround. There were 4 adults who all read these instructions, and apparently all of us misunderstood it as the pictures to the side door was the 'workaround.' We called the property management company and were rudely told ''didn't you read the instructions!?" Apparently the workaround is you had to go through the parkade when going in/out by foot - which was NOT in the instructions. In summary, if the regular check-in isn't working, modify your check-in information and make it clear.
- We were there during a heat wave and it was a bit odd that one of the master bedrooms did not have a vent for A/C or Air. This is a building design flaw and nothing against the owners/property management. Unfortunately even though we had A/C on in the unit, this room was quite stuffy at night.
- There was no patio umbrella available for us to be able to enjoy the patio in the sun, despite there being a sign on the door regarding a patio umbrella. Perhaps it was missing/being replaced etc. ? We inquired with the property management contact and they said they'd get in touch with the owners and we never had a response back.
