We stayed at the L'Etoile du Nord for a guy's trip and it couldn't have worked better. Comfortable, spacious, equipped with entertainment, in the center of the action: it was hard to ask for much more. The hosts communicate readily and well. I would highly recommend the property!

Great property in the heart of Canal Park - plenty of room and accommodates special needs!

The entire process was a breeze! This was our 1st VRBO rental, and could not have been easier. We were looking for a property that would fit our unique needs - we have a special needs adult who requires 24-hour care and a good amount of medical equipment must travel with them...they need a lot of space for their wheelchair and many other items, and we had it to spare! The 3 bedrooms allowed multiple to family caregivers to have their own space to rest in, and then we could all gather in the common area to spend time together.The common area is awesome! From the multiple window seats, to foosball and darts, to the TV area, to the sitting and gaming areas...there's even a small desk if you needed to do a little work! We joked around that the dining counter was TOO big while we were trying to play cards! 10 people could very comfortably gather there. Having to navigate large wheelchair through the space was easily done! I can't tell you how incredibly valuable that is!The bedrooms were also very comfortable and large! The main bedroom was quite large, and our family member with medical needs was in the other king bedroom (a little smaller), but has its own bathroom. Each of the rooms have smaller TVs, and there's a larger TV in the common area.If I HAD to find a critique, it's that the HVAC system is LOUD. But is an old building and huge space and it kept it cool!We can't say enough good things about the property & the hosts! Not enough room here to sing the praises!

Perfect spot for a quick family trip

We had a wonderful time staying at The Brix. The location cannot be beat! Walkable to so many places in Canal Park. The rooms were spacious, clean and so comfortable. My mother, who requires a walker and wheelchair assistance was able to have space to move around the rooms, bathrooms and living areas. The kitchen was a fantastic spot to sit and snack and wine fridge was a huge plus. Would recommend to anyone and will be looking to book again in the future! Thank you!
