This is in a great location within a few minutes walk of the Sealife Centre and all the shops on 4th Ave. Unfortunately, Apartment 6 is misrepresented in the Orbitz description, which states it has a queen-size bed. The bed was a full-size, which is much too small for my husband and me to sleep in, so I was relegated to the click-clack sofa which was uncomfortable, resulting in a sore back for me for several days. The full bed was also very noisy when my husband changed position in the night. Adding to the noise was the rain pounding on the roof all night, and a heating/cooling unit or something on the adjacent roof. However, there was no traffic noise or people noise.
It was close to shops and restaurants so that was nice. Nothing mentions that there is only stairs or a chair lift to get up stairs. The table and chairs inside are more decorative than functional and the bed is just a metal platform with a mattress thrown on top that leans towards the top left of the bed. There is a bar right next door and the people were singing loudly until almost 2 in the morning. The last night the hot water was out and we waited 4 hours for someone to tell us what was going on and no one ever contacted us. Overall it was a place to stay but we won’t be back.

We definitely apologize for the hot water issue and will share with our staff responsible for communication. Will also make note regarding the furniture and noise issue with the property owners. We appreciate the feedback.
