Brand New Modern Laneway House

Clean and reasonably confortable

Limited plates and glasses. No hangers in bathroom or anywhere else to hang coats No mention of heating No instructions on using anything other than coffee maker Nothing to help visitor like transport links and costs, local supermarkets or corner shops, takeaways, taxi numbers Even to the degree of confirming water is drinkable or not

Very cozy

The location is convenient and the place is quite nice, quiet and clean.

I’d have a few minor quibbles with the way things are set up. The main one is the mismatch between the counter height and the chairs in the kitchen making dining awkward. This was coupled with the fact that there was only one chair in the place that was comfortable for sitting.

Nice that it was a separate building. It was quiet. The bed was comfortable. It was appointed with all the basic necessities. Overall the place was clean. It is in a nice residential area south of downtown which is nice if you have a vehicle.

I was expecting a bit more privacy. You have to walk into the backyard of the main property and all the windows in the suite are pointing towards the backyard, their driveway or the back alley so if you want privacy you have to have all the blinds closed. The water pressure was very poor in the shower and they did not provide wash clothes, only towels. I also found several long black hairs on my bath towel. We looked for the additional bedding for the pullout couch but didn’t find it until the next morning as it was in one of the cabinets in the kitchen…in the closet would be easier to find or label the cabinet. Parking is limited during the day if you want to go out and come back but it seemed ok at night. Comparatively to other properties it’s a good value but it still seems overpriced for what you get considering you’re paying over $100 in “taxes and fees” almost as much as the unit rental price.
