we stayed here for four nights with our family event in Halifax. we had a great time. the location is amazing with so much within walking distance but the house is quiet and shielded from outside noise. the history of the home is appealing but it has all the amenities we needed. it is on the second and third floor so you need to be able to do stairs. some of the things important to us: the bedrooms which had air conditioning (3/4) were very comfortable in the summer heat. There were fans to move the air. All the beds were comfortable. The water pressure is good. The kitchen is new and clean with a dish washer. Fabulous location. Easy check in process. Simple check out: Not a huge list of complicated check out tasks like we have had at other rentals. Helpful but non-invasive host.
