Great family home just outside halifax!
We had a great at this VRBO! The location was wonderful, with it being a short drive into downtown Halifax and having the local market and the Birch and Anchor pub so nearby. The accommodation itself was very spacious, with large bedrooms and really great common area in the kitchen and living room, which was great for spending time with our group. Additionally, having the property/balcony overlook the harbour was quite nice, especially at sunset. No complaints at all, would happily come back.

Not the place we were expecting
There were a few issues that caught us by surprise. However, when we raised them with the host, she was responsive and ultimately, made it right.
