Tammy and Amanda at the rental office are the sweetest! They always have a smile on their faces and always greet my dog Zora with pets and treats any day they see her.

I really enjoy living here so far. Great appliances, nice flooring, and great location in the central of downtown - only 5mins walk to LRT. And great great great staff! I was impressed by Ishak, who is super friendly, patient and helpful!!! I applied [for] this apartment in the very last minute...so I was rushed to look for a new place. I am appreciative of Ishak’s service.

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.

Beautiful lake view. Close to superstore, Walmart and anything you may need. No need to cross the bridge on weekend is perfect. On site amenities, rooftop patio with view of the lake and a responsive management team. Good sized 2 bedroom with nice finishes....a great place to call home.
