Mayfair is a wonderful place to live with equally wonderful staff members! Tammy specifically is amazing. She always greets [us] when we walk by the office and she remembers small details about us (which is amazing with how many units there are). She not only works very hard and answers all questions that we have but she is beyond kind! The kindness she has toward us makes this place more incredible to live at!

My friends and I have been staying in this apartment since September 2021. Merideth who works at the rental office is so welcoming and super kind to talk to and super friendly. We would definitely love to stay here for another year as we felt at home. Highly recommended!!!

What do I love about my Capreit community? It's down to either my huge living room with beautiful original finishes, the amazing skyline view from the building's park, or the historical grounds and mansion.

The common areas are pleasant, and there is a good rapport with the neighbours. The rooftop view, especially at night, is truly amazing.
