Pretty close to everything, post, grocery store, museum, tourist center, banks James is so friendly but won’t interrupt you when you’re staying here He just come and keep everything tidy! Wonderful room to stay, queen size and soft bed help you sleep well The coded lock make you feel safe when you’re out No But the shower is a bit small, but it’s not a big deal The water pressure is great, so it was still a very comfortable show

The beddings are super comfy. It feels very homy like your own home. I don't see anything negative during my stay. In fact, I was pleased to have met personally Ann, who along with James, are very approachable, humble, and dedicated owners of the property. This home is strategically accessible to all essentials in the very heart of downtown Yellowknife (church, banks, vity hall, park, supermarket, bars and restaurant, etc).

I had a great stay and really enjoyed my time here. The place was exactly as described very clean, comfortable, and well organized, with everything I needed as a solo traveler. It felt safe, quiet, and welcoming, which made it easy to relax and feel at home. James was an excellent host friendly, responsive, and easy to communicate with. He made the entire stay smooth and stress-free, which I really appreciated. The location was also very convenient and made getting around simple.
