Great stay in the heart of town. Walkable to restaurants and shops. Apartment is warm and nicely outfitted with everything you need. The host is very responsive. My only critique is that the bathroom has no counter space at all and is quite tight but still functional enough. Would recommend!

Thank you for your valuable review. We appreciate your feedback and are committed to addressing it promptly to ensure complete guest satisfaction. Your suggestion regarding the counter space will be taken into careful consideration.
We went to see the Aurora. Was getting home at 3am. Thought we could sleep in but it was very noisy above. I recommend people wear mocassins or quiet slippers and avoid heavy activity in the bedroom area. Dog barking didn’t help either. I recommend to put a curtain on the kitchen window, the sun is right in ur eyes.Everything was great other than we were not getting good sleep.

There are cellular blinds on the kitchen windows that can be use to reduce the brightness in the room. Also we tried to minimize the noise as much as we can but it did not work out for you.
We appreciate and respect your feedback, and we sincerely apologize for your experience. We will take action to address this.
About the host
Hosted by Alvin Jay Torres
I’m originally from the Philippines and have been living in Yellowknife since 2021. I enjoy meeting and socializing with people from different backgrounds, playing basketball, and spending quality time with my family. I love being a host because it gives me the opportunity to connect with guests and help make their stay comfortable and memorable.
Why they chose this property
My neighborhood is located right in downtown Yellowknife, which makes it very convenient and easy to get around. Most essential goods and shops are just a short walking distance away. Since Yellowknife is a small city, everything is close by lakes, scenic walking trails, shopping malls, restaurants, museums, and the visitor center are all easily accessible. I enjoy how convenient and walkable the area is, while still being close to nature and local attractions.
What makes this property unique
What makes my property stand out is its cozy and relaxing atmosphere, even though it’s located right in downtown. Guests can enjoy a peaceful and comfortable stay while still being close to shops, restaurants, and local attractions.
