Niagara Falls Townhome: Near Wineries!

• Clean

  4/5

  We stayed here for 3 nights with our son and his family. Reading other reviews sort of prepared us for the neighborhood, but it was still a bit shocking to see. However, we did feel safe. The house was clean and well maintained. We enjoyed playing the games, that were in the house, in the evenings. The beds were comfortable but there is no a/c upstairs. The ceiling fans helped and we were thankful for nice weather. The most frustrating part of our stay was the property being hosted through Evolve. All information provided after our reservation was made was communicated through another secure website which required a verification every time. This made it difficult to share the information with the rest of the family. Also, the front door lock required an app on my phone. I was the only one that could use it and had to have my phone any time we walked outside because the door automatically locked in less than a minute. It would’ve been nice to have all the communication through VRBO and a door lock with a numbered key pad. All in all, we enjoyed our stay. If we ever went back, we would consider staying on the Canadian side of the falls. There was alot more to do over there.

• Bachelor party

  5/5

  When arriving there were some chip crumbs all over the living room and appeared as if the beds were recently used. Assuming cleaning did not go through and clean prior to our move in. House keeping did bring additional towels and owner lives on other side of duplex which is very nice. Area is a little run down but had no issues with anyone while staying. Overall nice location with everything you need for a trip.

• Perfect location

• Big House close to Niagara Falls good for budget travelers

  3/5

  The home was large with many beds and easily accommodated my family of ten. All in all, it is a good budget option. I didn't receive the code to get In via email but got that resolved in less than half an hour by calling Evolve staff. The house was easy to find. Nice neighbors. Not enough towels. We did receive towels the next day but 2 people had to shower without. There was a mold smell on first floor coming from basement. Luckily, we were there just to sleep and the smell was not on the 2nd floor. The house was clean with the exception of the upstairs bathroom having hair in the tub and in the corner of the floor (a large amount of hair) and there being a dirty sock in one of the bunk beds which my child unfortunately found in the sheets after she had slept there. The home is an easy walk from Niagara Falls which is great. We were able to walk there and walk to the Amtrak station. It is not a safe enough area to walk around at night but it was fine during the day. Many of the homes on the street are abandoned and boarded up. There is trash in all the yards except for this one. The home had a lovely backyard although we didn't have time to use it. It was also well equipped with kid's books and games. A new lock should be put in the upstairs bathroom as it gets stuck and children can have a hard time getting out. Also, the master bedroom has a porch but no lock on the door. That was fine for us but, given the neighborhood, I would not have felt safe if I were by myself. The kitchen was well-stocked. The bedding appeared new and beds were comfortable. All in all, if you have a big group and want to save money this is a good spot to stay to see the falls. If you can splurge, stay somewhere a bit nicer.
