The apartment was clean, cute and had everything we could have needed. The host was great. The only draw back was that the visitors at the other vacation rental at the property were very loud and spent the weekend drunk.

Thanks for your review and I'm happy you enjoyed the apartment. I'm sorry about the disturbance. I did not hear anything and would have been happy to tell the other group to tone it down while sitting on the patio or move inside.

This was a perfect transaction from start to finish, no doubt due to our host CHRISTINE‘s attention to detail, good communication and personal touch. Christine endured we had an enjoyable experience attending a wedding in Elora, to then return to her beautiful apartment

A nice room where the bed is…ok bed, but low to the ground, which was ok for us. Clean, friendly feel, but the kitchenette is awkward w no natural light and only a counter w metal stools to sit. So—fine accommodations if you are planning to eat meals at a restaurant.

Dear Nancy, Thanks for your review. Bed preferences are a personal choice and it clearly states in the description that it is a European bed. There are pictures of the kitchenette and breakfast bar in the description as well - the property comes as advertised and i'm sorry it didn't meet your expectations or that you didn't bother to read the description. All the best!

I enjoyed my first visit to Elora! The property location is excellent for accessing local stores and restaurants. I also took an easy day trip to Niagara Falls. I stayed in the Petit Apartment and the accomodations were as described in the listing. Communication with the host, Christine, was great! The area is beautiful!

This little spot is a gem in Elora - perfect walking distance to downtown, the gorge, The Mill, all of the shops. I found a lovely coffee shop within walking distance that was open at 7:30AM, which was a bonus. The apartment is quiet, clean, beautifully outfitted with a kitchenette and second spot for sleeping in the living room area if necessary. Communication with Christine was excellent, and the keyless entry made checking in and exiting a breeze. Highly recommend, and would stay there again.

Christine was lovely from the first minute. The property was beautiful, very clean, and well-stocked with drinks. The bed was large and very comfortable. The access to the wedding ceremony and reception venue could not have been better, especially as my older partner uses a walker to get around. I also thank Christine for finding my partner's retainer, mistakenly left behind, and for being willing to make arrangements for my sister to pick it up for us. Very kind indeed! The one thing that would have been nice for us in the morning was coffee.
