Mallory was so lovely and communicative, she also let us leave our bags at the apartment after check-out because we had a late flight. Great place!

Cute little basement suite in a private neighbourhood with a great coffee shop/bakery a block away. Mallory was very communicative but otherwise left us alone. Family lives upstairs so there are the is usual sounds of family life through the ceiling but nothing too obtrusive. Kitchenette and bathroom are not well appointed (eg. no dishes or shower gel) but we asked for a kettle an Mallory provided us with one. Would stay there again as it is perfect option for short stays in Halifax.
