Jenny herself is great to work with, and went out of her way to accommodate me when I couldn't leave for the airport for hours after checkout. However, the walls are super thin; I could hear everything in the room next door. There's a shortage of towels, not to mention no washcloths, and no good place to hang wet towels to dry and reuse. There was no good place (no folding suitcase stand) to put my suitcase and no drawers to put my clothes away. The kitchen was well-appointed, however, and had everything I needed. In short, a towel rack, a suitcase stand, and insulated walls would make a world of difference.

The house was very clean and in an excellent location. Most of the attractions were within a 15 minute walk from the house. Full kitchen complete with coffee, teas and condiments. There was some confusion about breakfast. There was a sign on the fridge that said "Breakfast was self serve". Inside the fridge there was a self marked "Private Food". on the next shelf there were muffins and fresh fruit. another guest and I assumed that the fruit and muffins were the "Self Serve" breakfast mentioned on the sign, so we helped ourselves. But it was actually food that belonged to another guest. No breakfast food was actually provided for the guests. I would strongly recommend Genny's. Just bring your own breakfast.

Jenny is a great host. The entryway is wobbly needing new steps. Most guests are quiet but some nights were very noisy.

Great little place in the city-centre

Jenny's is a small room with a shared bathroom located in a clean house adjacent to the city-centre of Yellowknife (walking distance). Clean room and no complaints. Host stayed up late to wait for me as my flight was delayed at arrival. Can recommend this room without hesitation.
