However, the condition of the specific unit that we stayed in (#49) was very disappointing. This unit is very dark, with very little overhead lighting and would be greatly improved with more or better lighting. It is also located at the back of the complex bordering on the highway so it would not be appealing to have doors or windows open in warmer months due to road noise. We noticed noise from the tenants in the unit above (which can reasonably be expected in a ground floor unit).
Overall this particular unit felt neglected, and greatly lacking functional upkeep and esthetic updates. The sofa bed in the living room appears 20+ years old with a thin, deeply sagging mattress. The kitchen supplies were minimal, with basically only 4 of everything (plates, each utensil etc) so you find yourself running a dishwasher that is only half full or handwashing in order to have plates etc to use. The two "white" porcelain kitchen sinks are both badly worn with unsightly dark brown staining etched in to the bottom of the basins. The shower head in the bathroom did not produce great water pressure - would be nice if this was changed to a newer model.
We had a problem with the cable for the TV not working, but the property management company was good about sending someone over to help reset it and get it working for us.
We would not hesitate to stay in the Northstar complex again, and Whistler Superior was a fairly good management company to deal with, but we would not return to this particular unit.
Poor lighting throughout made the unit very dark. Another floor lamp for reading?? as the unit is in a dark corner of the complex. However the kitchen amenities could be way better. Set up really for those who entertain with an overload of wine goblets, plastic wine goblets plastic and glass pitchers..... tucked away. An oven glass baking dish would be very handy. But again not set up for self catering.
No cereal bowls just 4 large soup bowls....
Blender?
Cleaning crew never mopped as there were coffee/tea spills in the kitchen.
The noise from the above unit was annoying as one can hear the clatter of shoes and opening and closing of doors and drawers. Respectful of neighbours sign posted, please.
