This room was lovely! Perfect for those wanting to stay in a nice quiet area that is still close to amenities, and to do some light cooking and needing a washer dryer unit while travelling.
Everything was perfect. Clean and tidy. Amit had everything we needed (coffee, fruit, juices). We did a load of laundry and had detergent provided. Great location to all that we wanted for 4 days.
Everything was as advertised. We loved the thoughtful touch of breakfast and snacks. We enjoyed the quietude relaxing in the Adirondack chairs… would glady stay again!
Close to everything, this unit is in a great location in a quiet neighborhood. With attentive host that warn you to move your during a snow storm parking ban
This is a lovely cozy suite in a quiet area and it had everything we needed including a challenging hike in the woods to the left and close to restaurants on our walk to the right. Perfect location for us, awesome property manager/family, treated us with great care and concern.
Great place to stay Location is very central Aa an older person I found the stairs to the bathroom difficult first thing in the morning but would stay there again
Good location, close to shopping and connections. Lovely neighbourhood and nicely decorated. Quite a steep driveway and stairs, but thankfully we were on the first floor.
Decided to head Down East to visit family and chose to book something different than a hotel room where we could prepare a couple of our meals rather than eat at restaurants all the time. Your location fit the bill and was clean and comfortable and nicely decorated. We would definitley stay again!
The host has anticipated many of the needs of a traveller. The place is comfortable and well stocked. The one thing to be aware of, if you have any mobility concerns, is there are a lot of stairs to get to the suite. Great place to stay.

The accommodation was very comfortable, felt safe, and is in a lovely neighbourhood. The kitchen contained adequate appliances and utensils to make a decent meal. Location is close enough to Halifax to drive there easily, but also convenient to drive to the airport.
The apartment was generally clean and tidy, with the amenities as advertised. There were a few issues, which were addressed promptly and graciously by the owner - this was appreciated. We found the owner to be a genuine and accommodating person. Since we were there for 5 nights, the only thing we felt that was missing from this place were drawers for storage of our clothes. Otherwise a very quaint and quiet place to stay.
Visiting family - turns out only 8 minutes away. Location was perfect. Easy access to downtown Halifax. VRBO suite has everything needed for visit - 1 to 2 people. Vert comfortable.
Enjoyed staying here. Small studio apartment with everything you would need. Host went above and beyond ensuring everything needed was there and even light breakfast for first morning in case late arriving. Within minutes drive to anything you may need plus more. No problem in recommending unless stairs is an issue mobility wise
We chose this location as it was close to nearby family in Bedford. A good location for an extended stay such as ours. Temperature control within the suite was somewhat problematic; however, we were there at a time of year when the winter weather were not great most of the time. Minor enhancements could be done: for example, the suite is dominated by a large table and four chairs that could be replaced by something smaller given that only two people can occupy the suite - this would provide an impression of more living space. Overall, we would stay here again. Our host was easy to reach and quite accommodating.
It was quite pleasant. The accommodation was as stated, clean, spacious, modern, and close to where we wanted to be: central. There was a lot of stair climbing involved, which was fine for us but maybe not all older people. The bed was unusual but comfortable; the shower was quite spacious, and the kitchen was well-equipped. In general, it was very acceptable.
I was comfortable here in both comfort of suite and comfortable when it can to feeling secure. Within 5 to 10 min drive to anything you may need and 15 minutes walk you can see the beautiful scenic basin. Host provided items expected in hotel suite plus more. No issue in recommending to anyone unless you cannot do stairs.

Liked: Communication, location, listing accuracy
Disliked: Check-in
Not as comfortable as the first time we stayed
The unit is very well equipped with everything you could need I.e. electric appliances, love seat, bistro style dining with four chairs and a comfortable queen bed (cabinet bed). What we weren’t happy with is that it is looking a bit tired. Bedding is faded, corners are collecting dust, bathroom window with dead insects. Noise from upstairs above the bed a bit much for us.

This lovely B&B was so comfortable and clean and easy to be in. It is set in a quiet, safe neighbourhood, and provided by a responsive, friendly, thoughtful and kind host!
The place is like a like a bachelor apartment, with a very comfortable bed, a sofa to relax on while reading or watching TV, a modern, spacious bathroom, and a lovely little kitchenette.
I walked in the hilly neighbourhood each day because it was quiet and pretty, set off the edge of Bedford Basin, and the woods and trees along the streets and roads were very calming.
My host, Amit, stocked the kitchen and bathroom with many thoughtful things that I so appreciated (any tool needed for cooking, coffee for my first couple of mornings, some fruit, a comfy bathrobe for after showering, and lots more).
My check-in was late in the evening, and Amit readily accommodated that, and made it very easy, with clear instructions, a well-lit walkway to the door, and a seamless self-check-in system.
I was glad to meet Amit on one of the days I was there, and have a little chat while he was working around his house. It's easy to imagine staying there for longer than my brief 5 day-stay, and I hope to return.
I highly recommend this place.
Thank you Amit!
