Lived here while working at the hospital—easy walk, even in poor weather. Also an easy walk to Whyte Avenue...I always felt safe and the office staff and building employees were always very helpful and friendly whenever I needed anything and I wouldn’t hesitate to live there again if I move back to Edmonton.

The staff are very friendly and very helpful. The rent is very reasonable, and any maintenance issues are taken care of right away. Garneau Towers is a great place to live. We are two blocks from the LRT and are on many bus routes, as well as very close to the UofA Hospital, and the UofA campus.

I'm very happy to live here. It's close to a supermarket, bus station and great locations for walks. The management team is great, Fahad is friendly and helpful.

We have been living here for the last 2 years and we couldn't be happier. As UofA students, the location cannot be better. Being near Whyte avenue and the River Valley allows many options to disconnect from the academic life. As dog owners, the fact that the building is pet friendly (with no restriction in size) is a big big plus. Finally, but not least, the managing staff has always been great with us. Lucky to be here!
