Property is located within walkable distance to dining, cafes, St Catherine St and Old Town. Suite size feels a fair bit smaller than what’s advertised on Expedia. Furnishings and kitchen utensils can best be described as adequate and there is a constant noise from the water pipes, likely from the water tank operation. Bathroom size is small.
