This was a comfy apartment 2 miles from downtown Courtenay. There is a shopping strip including Walmart and Winners-within walking distance across a busy street. The building has an elevator to the third floor. However the door to the stairs is right beside the apartment.
I gave this stay a four star because there was no air conditioning; the two fans would have been sufficient had we opened the windows, too much noise outside to have windows open due to construction on one side of the apartment complex.
Definitely value for the price, and a good alternative to expensive hotels.
