The property offers a twin room (two single beds) and a double room (one double bed), both on the second floor. Each room is compact but functionally furnished, featuring a desk, outdoor dining area, tea/coffee making facilities, and mini-bar. The shared bathroom is well-stocked with complimentary toiletries, hair dryer, and iron. The overall atmosphere is clean, quiet, and comfortable, with a homely feel. Road-facing rooms may experience some street noise; ear plugs are provided. Rooms are small but efficiently designed - better suited for solo travellers or couples prioritizing location and cleanliness over space.

Dining

No restaurant on-site, but a fully equipped shared kitchen is available for self-catering, plus complimentary tea, coffee, and often fruit.
The shared kitchen includes a stovetop, refrigerator, oven, and all cookware, allowing guests to prepare their own meals.

Numerous restaurants are within a short walk: Freshed Right Salad and Juice Bar (0.5 km), Sukho Thai (0.5 km), Peking Express (0.5 km), House on Parliament (0.5 km), and a 24-hour Tim Hortons across the street.

Leisure

On-site relaxation includes a garden, outdoor seating, picnic area, and a shared lounge/TV room.
Wellness and leisure facilities are limited to the property's outdoor spaces: a garden with outdoor furniture and a picnic area, plus a shared lounge/TV room for downtime. No pool, spa, or gym is available. The surrounding area offers ice-skating and boating options, and hiking trails are accessible on foot.

Top Strategic Tips

  • 01

    Book only one room - the price covers a single private room, not the whole house.

  • 02

    Use the luggage storage for early arrival or late departure, allowing free exploration.

  • 03

    Request a late check-in anytime - the host accommodates arrivals after midnight with prior notice.

  • 04

    Choose a room away from the road if noise sensitivity is a concern.
