March Break Holiday

  • 5 of 5
  • Submitted: Mar 18, 2013
  • Stayed: Mar 2013
We stayed here for 5 days. We have 6 people in our family - 2 adults and 4 teenagers. The pictures are an exact representation of what the home looks like. The beds were very comfortable and the linens and bath towels were lovely. Everything you could need was in this home in abundance, There is plenty of glass wear and cutlery and dishes. The kitchen is well stocked with everything that you might possibly need. The location is great in that it is within walking distance to so many things you might wish to do while in Ottawa. We walked to the Byward Market, The Parliament Building, The Mint, The Shopping Mall, the grocery store. Albeit the neighbourhood looks a little sketchy where the home is located I never felt unsafe. Catherine did an amazing job at responding quickly to all my emails and when we ran into an issue with Netflix - someone was at my door within minutes!! Talk about service. When I had a concern and texted Catherine I got a response immediately. That is very comforting and extremely professional. I would recommend staying here to anyone who wants to see Ottawa and not have to pay expensive hotel prices. It's great to have your own space and have a kitchen to prepare meals to cut down on costs. Parking was just a short walk away and was convenient. Someone was waiting there to meet us when we checked in and helped us with our things. She went over anything she thought we needed to know. Overall a very positive experience and I would recommend this home to anyone.

We stayed at the property for 2 nights. Everything was great, someone met with us at the agreed upon time, all 3 bedrooms were well appointed and everyone was comfortable. The small kitchen had abundant pots, pans, plates, glasses and cutlery. Lots of towels and clean. Most of the sites we went to see were within a 30 minute walk (we just parked our vehicles for the weekend) and there are lots of buses going by. We will be back.

KINKY SUSHI

  • 5 of 5
  • Submitted: Feb 24, 2013
  • Stayed: Jan 2013
My friends from Europe had never been to Ottawa, so we drove up from Montreal for a weekend. We rented this 3 bedroom condo, and it was a great choice! The location is a short walk to the Byward market, the liquor store, 24 hour grocery store, Parliament hill and the Rideau canal. This place was really, really clean (I thought my home was clean but this place put me to shame!) and the furniture and colours are funky and fun. We really appreciated the kitchen because it included things like spices, some canned goods, pasta, rice and so on, to prepare a few meals. We didn't eat all our meals there because there were so many restaurants really close by and we were out most of the day and night. We highly recommend this condo for anyone traveling to Ottawa, especially in a bigger group, and Catherine and her team were great to deal with. Oh! And thank you for the books, magazines, games, quizzes, puzzles, etc. I am looking forward to put my bags down in the ''Queen's bedroom'' next time I rent this lovely place! x

Winterlude - Wonderful Memories

  • 5 of 5
  • Submitted: Feb 22, 2013
  • Stayed: Feb 2013
The apartment is very conveniently located for almost all of the Winterlude activities. The Byward Market with its large selection of restuarants is only a 5 – 10 minute walk away. Whislt the Rideau Canal and Parliament Hill are a further 5 minute walk. Also within walking distance are the Art Museum and Mint. The Museum of Civilation in Gatineau Quebec is only a short cab ride away.
The apartment’s modern décor within the older building give it a quaint charm and it lived up to the expectations of the photographs and the very accurate description on VRBO, with the added bonus of a high definintion TV over the fireplace in the living room. The whole apartment is nicely decorated and has a clean pristine look. The beds are very comfortable and the linens are crisp and clean. The kitchen and dining room were well stocked with everything you might need and more.
Everything you think you might need are within a 5 minute walk or closer. There are a number of take out restuarants. The Thai Take Out across the road was particularly good. There are two major grocery chains, a very large LCBO with an extensive Vinatages section on the lower level and a Shoppers Drug Mart.
It was a pleasure to deal with the owner and everything was made very easy for both our arrival and departure. Plus there was an detailed binder letting you know any key information you might need to know.
What more can I say – perfect location, for a perfect weekend, in the nations capital to enjoy Winterlude . I will most certainly use this location again when I come back to Ottawa and have already recommended it to friends.

Worked well for our large group

  • 5 of 5
  • Submitted: Feb 10, 2013
  • Stayed: Jan 2013
This was the best option I could find in Ottawa to accommodate our large group of six adults and two young children (1 and 3). The three queen beds in separate rooms were great and there was room for the two portable beds (which we brought with us) for the kids in the room with their parents. There was a small stroller and some toys provided. Their room was separated from the other two by the bathroom, so the kids did not wake others when they woke in the night. Even though the building is on a busy street, the bedrooms were quiet. The very small kitchen and living/dining room are on opposite ends of the unit which was a bit inconvenient but still workable. The towels were abundant and very soft. Catherine is presently managing from a distance, but responded quickly to all my emails and was open to my suggestions for improvements which she promised to put in place right away (such as dealing with the internet cutting out, redoing locks, light weight blankets available to complement the duvets, hooks for clothing in bathroom...). The place was generally clean though I pointed out some small areas of improvement which Catherine said she would have attended to in the future. It is apparently a relatively new property for her and they are still working on improvements. She arranged to have a personal item we left behind mailed to us. In spite of some small glitches, I felt very good about my interactions with Catherine and our stay. The location was excellent, and I don't believe I could have found anything else more suitable for our stay. We did have to pay for parking and carry our belongings some distance as there is no parking in front of the building during business/traffic hours...not a major problem for us, but might be for some. It is located in a commercial area, but is a short walk to areas of old homes, embassies, and a lovely park on the river.

Owner's Response: I am so glad that my recent guest, with the very large group, enjoyed her stay so much that she gave my home 5 stars. We truly appreciate our guests approving of our home, services, and amenities. I would like to expand on some of my guests' comments...Parking is available directly in front of the door at a nominal fee during the day and free after 5:30 and all day/night on Sundays. Dedicated parking is optional for this unit at $10 plus HST per night and is 100 feet (30 second walk) from the condo, an exceptional price for downtown Ottawa...I am very proud that we provide in-person service, both from a check-in perspective, and an on-call basis, for all needs; as reflected when this guest had a query about the internet and contacted me later at night, which we were able to quickly resolve...With regards to WIFI internet, we are proud to offer, on a complimentary basis, the fastest and most reliable in Canada, and it is UNLIMITED! And that is great news for our guests....We look forward to offering all of our guests the same level of commitment to personal service, attention to detail, cleanliness and commitment to quality.

This property was a great option for three of us attending a conference. The rooms were comfortable, nicely decorated and everything was provided to make our stay very comfortable. We were within walking distance to everything we needed. Even on a really snowy night we had a nice walk to get groceries and a bottle of wine. I would highly recommend this property - it delivered as promised!

A convenient and comfortable place to stay downtown

  • Submitted: Oct 18, 2012

Condo is located near downtown convenient to Bytown Market, where there are lots of restaurants, Rideau bakery and grocery stores. Busy road- on bus route. Well appointed and very clean with lots of electronic gadgets: tvs and games in each of the bedrooms. Nice to have a dining room/living where we could entertain. Vast amount of china, glassware, and cutlery. Also quiet dishwasher ,washing and drying machines. Not much storage or workspace in Kitchen but understand they are revamping the kitchen over the winter. Owner very eager to help. Recommend to group of friends /relatives. We recommend the sausage shop in the market! Also Strathcona Park on Range Road for a nice walk by the Rideau River.

Perfect Location for Downtown Ottawa Sightseeing

  • 5 of 5
  • Submitted: Oct 3, 2012
  • Stayed: Sep 2012
We came to know of this condo because our son had stayed at another unit owned by the same couple, and he loved it, so we were sure that we would be in good hands. Our hunch was right!

The condo lacked for nothing. The beds were very comfortable and the kitchen and dining room were well stocked with everything we needed. We had guests for dinner while we were there and it was great to have the glassware, barware, china, pots, pans and kitchen appliances and utensils, available for our use.

The en-suite washer and dryer came in handy and was appreciated.

The high definition TVs and PS3s in the three bedrooms are all brand new and work great.

The condo is very conveniently located for any downtown activity, whether that's shopping in the Byward Market or the Rideau Centre, or taking in the National Art Gallery, or touring Parliament Hill. The immediate neighbourhood around the condo has a lot of charm (a lot of embassies, and a number of restaurants with cuisines from around the world) and convenience (two 24-hour supermarkets are very close by, as is a very good little private-operated wine store that is open until 11:00 pm).

We had our vehicle with us, but we often left it parked and just walked to our destinations. We noticed that the bus service is quite frequent and that cabs are plentiful in this area of Ottawa.

Everyone we dealt with for this rental was very friendly and helpful. They made us feel right at home.
In short, this was a good deal- it was well priced and was everything it promised to be.

We will be back again.

Owner's Response: Because our condo is in a urban environment, the location makes getting provisions, or getting to tourists attractions, easy and quick. It really is convenient having so many 24 hour shops open. And, the transportation choices are abundant. Not only does this unit have parking available if needed, but the buses are steps away, and you can also flag a cab just outside the front door.

A PERFECT VACATION IN OTTAWA

  • Submitted: Aug 31, 2012
  • Stayed: Aug 2012
Location - Location, we walked to everything including watching the changing of the guards, the fantastic art museum, the market, Church, to the river for a boat tour and so much more. We were four senior adults: my husband and me, my brother and a close friend. The three bedrooms, each with our own television sets, were perfect for us. The kitchen had everything we needed for our 4 night stay. We made breakfast every morning and cooked one dinner and each evening before walking to a restaurant we shared conversation and a bottle of wine in the very charming and cheerful living/dining room. The property is immaculate and the washer and dryer was so convenient for us as we had driven from Florida. The condo was perfect in every way for us.

Owner's Response: I am so pleased that the guests are using the conveniences of the unit to make their stay more pleasant (and save them money too). Being able to cook some meals at home certainly is better than restaurants 3 times a day, every day. And, who wants to spend their vacation time at a laundromat? I understand. When my husband and I travel we make sure we rent homes that have these conveniences too.
