  • 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!!!

  • 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.

    - Danielle

  • It's a nice quiet place and the management is great.

    - Nigel
