    Great central location, easy walking distance to attractions eg. Citadel, Pier 21, waterfront boardwalk, Dalhousie. Many food options: restaurants, cafes, gastropubs. Minor concern that the basement windows are sealed with paint so fresh air circulation is a bit compromised and emergency egress limited. Kitchen OK for basics like boiling and microwaving but not stocked for food preparation eg. spices, condiments, and quality kitchenware. PD…

So easy to walk to the waterfront, the Citadel and so many great restaurants. We took day trips to Peggy's Cove, Lunenburg, Mahone Bay, Cape Split at the Bay of Fundy, Luckett Vineyards and several beaches on the Eastern Shore. All were easy to get to from this condo. So nice having a parking garage and we had no problems using the washer and dryer located on each floor of the condo. We would highly recommend Mike's place!…
