Hot showers: Water can take some time to warm up, especially at the beginning of your stay. If you find that the water for a shower or from the sink is not getting warm, turn it on in the hot position and let the water run for several minutes. If it continues to be stubborn and not warm up, let us know so we can troubleshoot.

Appreciated careful advance communication from host which led to great prep of the property. Easy to reach during the stay as well. House was clean and spacious and met our needs. Great neighborhood.
This is the second time we’ve stayed here. Nice place. Nothing fancy but has what you need. Clean. Good location, easy access. Very responsive and friendly host- even left some lovely Christmas cookies as a welcome.
I have stayed in many VRBOs over the years and this by far was the best place I have stayed. WELL worth the price. Check in was the easiest I have had. My daughter and I stayed two weeks and enjoyed every minute of it. We especially love the back yard. While it was too cold to swim we simply enjoyed the lighted covered patio while enjoying our favorite beverage. The bedroom and bathrooms were perfect for our stay. The location is great too. Not far from the UofA and 4th Ave. I truly hope for our next visit we can come back here. Hopfully at a time so we can use the pool. Thanks!
