This property is exactly as posted. Location was perfect. The view was amazing. The host provided me with all the information I needed, direction to property, the code to get in. Gave us detailed information on accessing the property. We did not have any issues but she made sure to be available to us by reaching out to us on the day of arrival to make sure we received everything. This property was clean and well taken care of,

There was a bit of confusion about the booking, but that was resolved. Other than that I had a pleasant stay, quite comfortable.The only issue I still have is concerning the 20 charge for additional guests (It was just me). Will I be reimbursed?

Good location.
Zoe was a kind and generous host. Communication was great! The accommodation was comfortable and as described. Great view of Bedford basin, a little noisy if sitting outside but quiet inside.We would recommend this rental.

Stunning View and Exceptional Hospitality
We had a wonderful stay! The view is absolutely amazing—right in front of the Bedford Basin. The home is located in a beautiful and quiet neighborhood, just 10 minutes from downtown Halifax, with easy access to everything we needed. The place was spotless and very well maintained. Our host was thoughtful and incredibly responsive, always making sure we were comfortable. When the weather changed and it started raining, she even brought us umbrellas—such a kind gesture. As a bonus, we even saw a deer peacefully grazing nearby! We truly felt at home and would love to stay here again.
