Jenny’s guesthouse is well located downtown. It is close to an excellent cafe and in walking distance to other shops. Jenny was an excellent and friendly host. The rooms were clean and comfortable. The other guests were also very respectful in regards to the shared bathroom.

So this is a nice comfortable place, it's convenient and a good value. There is some occasional ambient noise from traffic and other tenants. It's not excessive, but I was glad I had foam earplugs and it's not a bad idea to bring some with you. It's a good property, I'd book here again.

I stayed for three nights in July. It was comfortable and quiet place to rest. I purchased groceries from store just a few blocks away and enjoyed good breakfasts and coffee that I made. The kitchen is well supplied with utensils and machines to make good meals. The large frig can hold all your food. House is only three blocks from City Hall and center of town. Great for walking and exploring Yellowknife.

You are not allowed to cook whatever you like. Although I wasnt going to cook but if someone is paying so much money they should be able to make a steak. Her house was stinking so badly that I had to go check in in a hotel. When I left I texted her saying that the place stinks so Iam leaving and she didn't even bother to respond. You are not allowed to open windows and on top of that the place was cold.

Le hôte est très gentil et nous a aidé à reserver des tours. Aussi elle nous a aidé en recevant et en remettant les vetements d’hiver loués. Le B&B est bien situé au centre ville. Proche des restos er de l’epicerie. Ce que je suggère d’ameliorer est la propreté, il y avait de la pousière cumulé à certains endroits. En resumé c’est un bon endroit pour rester. Merci!

I was booked for 5 nights , but knew I couldn’t stay there right away. It was not clean and there was no cleaning supplies around for me to do some cleaning. Linens were old, ripped and stained. Shared bathroom was dirty. Shower was covered in hair and somebody had their toothbrush in it. I slept in my clothing the first night and found another hotel the next day. Lucky for me we arrived really late the first night and had a 5:30am flight the last night. We stayed out late avoiding the place. I was able to sleep for a couple hours fully clothed in my coat and snow pants on top of the sheets , but I woke up to people coughing their heads off. The bathroom was directly behind my bedroom wall , so I also got to hear men urinating all night . Unfortunately, everything else was sold out for the last day of my trip as well and I had to return and spend one more night there. I didn’t use the shower and only used the bathroom when I was desperate! So I ended up having to pay for all 5 nights but spent 3 nights in another hotel. Don’t waste your money. This place was probably nice at one point in time, but needs so major help !

it was very cold and the nightstand was so dusty like it was never used for awhile. Good thing I had lysol wipes. But I would stay the beds were clean however the floor there was an old chip behind the door. NOT mine because I ate pringles.

My reservation wasn’t able to refund, even the wild fire had been happened there and the airport was closed. I was trying to contact with the property owner, but they didn’t provide any solution for this unexpected disaster, they still kept there policy, no refund, although everyone had evacuated from YellowKnife.
