The apartment was ideally located for us. It is adjacent to the Bow River trails and Chinatown, within a 10 minute walk to the 240-4th Ave entry to the +15 walkways that interconnect most of the major downtown buildings, and within a 15 minute walk of the Convention Center, the 7th St light rail, and the 8th St mall. A large supermarket, the Real Canadian Superstore, is a 10 minute walk east.
The apartment is as described, basic but very clean, comfortable and everything works. The kitchen-living area lacks a table for dining/working. The bedroom has a bed with memory foam mattress, comfortable bedding and side tables. The bathroom is compact but has heated floor. Entry arrangements are typical for a downtown apartment, with an electronic fob needed to enter the building and elevator and a key to enter the apartment. The manager promptly accommodated a request for an extra key. The apartment building is showing its age in the entry and elevator areas. On the other hand, for less than half the price of the more recently built luxury apartments along the Bow River downtown, this clean and comfortable apartment provides a similar location.
