"A friend and I stayed a week here in March 2026 for cycling trip. The place was clean and while a bit spartan - see below - it did has the essentials (including coffee maker with pods and a blender). The hot tub was great; the large back yard is spacious and private. The AC (Nest controlled) was up to the task, quickly dropping the indoor temp to 65 for a good night's sleep when it was 100 outside during the day. The beds were very comfortable and every BR has a TV.The host Tom was extremely responsive, though we really didn't have any issues for him to handle.The location is great, 10 minute drive from downtown, and you can walk to U of A. The specific block it's on is a bit dodgy from a curb-appeal pov (next to a trailer park), but we had no problems with noise, disturbances etc. And it's right across a side street from a Safeway.There were only 2 of us in this 4 BR place (not sure why the listing says 3 BR) and I think it would feel a bit crowded with 4 people as there is only a small sitting area and an island counter "table" for dining. That said, the shaded patio has a proper dining table as well as as couches, so that can serve as the living room for larger parties I suppose."
