Downtown Heritage Gem close to beach and convention center

This historic property was originally built in 1844. It is five (5) brick thick! Its roof was razed by the fire of 1869 but the remainder of the building remained intact. One of our Fathers of Confederation stayed at this property during the famous conference. Today, this historic gem's exterior remains consistent with its original construction. However, the suites within it have been completely renovated to include six (6) appliances (which include stove, fridge, microwave, dishwasher, full size washer and dryer), fully equipped kitchen. The bathroom has a stand alone shower and a claw foot bath tub. The large bedroom has a new, comfortable, queen sized bed and spacious closets with wooden hangers. The suite has hard wood floors and ten (10) foot ceilings. We also offer off street parking at our property along with internet and cable. Our previous guests have loved the fact this suite is a five (5) minute stroll to entertainment, restaurants, cafes, pubs,shops, and waterfront boardwalk. Guests often park their cars for their entire Charlottetown holiday and walk everywhere. This suite is also a great location to return to after day trips to other parts of the Island. Guests have described the suite as a home away from home.

Liked: Cleanliness
Wonderful place!
This place was beyond our expectations in terms of location, living space, comfort and cost. It was spacious and user-friendly. The hosts were very pleasant, helpful and accommodating; if there was ever an issue or a need, they responded quickly and efficiently. We loved being downtown and in walking distance of the waterfront and the whole downtown area. We would easily stay here again if the opportunity arose. Many thanks to our hosts Laurie and Alan!

Amazing location and clean apartment
Laurie was a great host. She was patient and very responsive as our arrival time kept changing and we had minimal access to the internet. The apartment was very clean and offered great spaces. We would highly suggest to anyone looking in the area!

Awesome location!!
This was a great condo and suited our needs perfectly. It’s 1 block away from the wharf and 1 block away from all the great restaurants, pubs and cafes. Parking is included right behind their building. Laurie was an excellent host and kept in touch in case we had any questions or issues. The condo itself was awesome - great WiFi, comfortable bed, nice kitchen. We spent most of our time at all the golf courses but the little time we were actually in the condo it suited our needs perfectly. Would definitely rent this place again!!!

In the heart of Charlottetown
What a great week we had in this property. Spotlessly clean, quiet and so close to amenities. The apartment was much larger than it looks in the photos and exceeded our expectations. Would definitely return next time we are in PEI

Great location! Nice and clean.
Our stay was lovely. You really can't beat the location - right downtown Charlottetown. There was lots of parking to be found on the street, too. The space was quite roomy, kitchen fully stocked with utensils, the wi-fi signal was good, and linens were great quality. We would definitely stay here again.

You couldn't pick a better spot.
June 27th to the 30th, 2018 We were blown away with the apartment and our host Laurie. She is a caring host who wants you to have a wonderful time in such a great heritage town and the building she has her apartments in. Accommodations are spotless, she has all the amenities you need. Walking distance to everything just park your car you won't need it. It was my birthday while we were there so we decided to go to the performance of Jesus Christ Superstar that is playing at the Confederation Center right across the street from where some folks recommended the restaurant in the Humboldt Hotel for steak dinner. They were so right, awesome meal. The show was memorable great voices. Super evening. Only thing we could say is we needed to stay a week not 3 days. Just not enough time to do it justice. Thank you Laurie for being a super host. Tom & Gail

We loved the host and the habitat! Perfect location to explore old Charlottetown. Surrounded by great restaurants, shops and tourist attractions. We made it our home base for 3 days of exploring PEI and enjoyed every minute of our stay.

Absolutely the best!
This place had everything. It was all new interior in a beautiful historic building in a location perfect for walking to the most desirable shopping and eating and museums. Laurie has thought of everything that you might need and the quality of the furnishings and kitchen items was remarkable. Excellent wifi. We felt so at home. We would return here anytime. Be sure to visit Receiver Cafe for breakfast and their bakery for bread!

What a lovely suite in such a convenient location. So comfortable and relaxing. All the comforts of home. Laurie was such a kind host. She also recommended a great place to go for a quick dinner before the theatre. Wish we could have stayed longer.

A lovely surprise.
Situated on the ground floor of an old character home, the apartment has been completely renovated. It is tastefully decorated and provides everything needed for a vacation stay. We appreciated the lovely bed linen and when I mentioned I liked a thinner pillow, the owner turned up with one the next day! Having and in-suite laundry - detergent supplied! - is a real bonus. The location is right in the heart of the City and it it literally a few minutes walk to a variety of really lovely restaurants in character-filled, renovated old buildings, the Water and parks. Park your car and walk. The entrance to the apartment is a little unsettling, but don't despair, the apartment is lovely.
