Emerald - 10mins from Stampede Park

the location was great, there was ample parking, close proximaty to several useful businesses (groceries, take away, drug store). i really liked how spacious the property was. the island was a great place to hang around when we were at the property. great for eating, visiting, playing games. would recommend bringing slippers.

the parking wasn't well defined, were we supposed to park in front or behind the owners car? the property was clean-ish. you could tell the most of the space was swept and wiped but there was hair behind the bathroom door, i had to clean the mirror before i could see in it. there was toothpaste spatters on the bathroom taps. there were bits of fluff and debris on the rug in the space, there was no dish cloth but an old sponge. and i had to buy toilet paper while we were there as we were left with about a half roll for 2 guests during a 2 day stay.

Very large apartment with kitchen, bathroom, lounge and laundry.

We knew about the stairs to this basement apartment, but lugging our big bags was difficult. Despite this the apartment has the potential to be excellent, need: instructions for the a/c, coffee supplies, face washers, dish cloth & tea towel, usb ports.

This place is so comfortable and inviting! It's conveniently located right by the bus stop, making transportation a breeze. The neighborhood is wonderfully quiet, ensuring a peaceful stay. There's even a pull-out sofa and extra linens, making it perfect for a small group.

Lack of soundproofing in the walls compromised privacy. Finding dirty dishes was unpleasant. Shower curtain in the bathroom was alittle moldy. To make matters worse, one of the beds was extremely firm, leading to a very uncomfortable night's sleep.

Overall the whole accommodation is visually appealing and looks nice. Our family slept well. TV, fridge, washer and dryer works. Friendly and helpful host.

We had issues with things that function. Shower was underwhelming, not enough spray power, and could not take a proper shower. Toilet seat slides and moves around. Bathroom faucet was not clean. Can hear footsteps and noise from upstairs. Microwave does not cook evenly or spin/rotate. Hot water kettle was dirty and rusty. Pots and pans not very clean.
