Not a hotel
Firstly, this is not a hotel it’s an apartment building as registered with the City of Barrie. There is no sign out front or instructions on where to park.
I received an email to offer a 5% discount if I booked directly with them. I sent feedback on my experience. At 0413 I received an incoherent message. I commented that this was very unprofessional and received the text below.

The property as a whole for the most part was clean and it was nice and quiet and there was a lovely restaurant within walking distance it was called Baccio Trattoria deffs recommmend! The bed was very soft and comfortable and we had a great sleep. The only thing there were a couple flies in the bathroom and there was a bug in the bathroom when we first arrived, I think that was because there’s a lot of grass and bushes around the area, not because it wasn’t clean. The other thing I would recommend is just making sure all the garbages are emptied because one of the garbages was not emptied when we first arrived. Overall it was a nice place to stay for our short trip it was conveniently located.

My husband and I stayed for only one night at Parkside house. The room was very lovely, clean and comfortable. The property was very quiet and easy to access. We were welcomed by Mark who set us up with everything that we needed for our stay. I would recommend this property.

I like the size of the suite; it’s big. Also, the hosts were quick to reply and provide what I requested.
However, the AC needs an upgrade and maybe add more toiletries. Overall, a nice place to stay.

Was good. Walked to downtown Barrie from the property and it was a bit sketchy. But not much owners can do about that.

Beautiful, well maintained property and unit with character and class. The only thing that could’ve made it better would’ve been ac in the bedroom.

Steve and Mark are the best host I met, lately. They look after their property well and we felt welcome soon we drove on that property. As a senior, climbing stairs was a bit hard but apartment took all that tiredness away after each climb. :)

Mark and Steve were great hosts! Very responsive and super nice. The unit we were in was one of their smaller units and it was very clean and actually cozy and spacious at the same time and quiet. Definitely would go back without a doubt.

Wonderful experience with both owners. Helpful even when I locked myself out thinking i would remember the key code. And then helpful when I asked for the place to smoke outside. It looked beautiful but I laid in the comfy bed and fell asleep instantly and slept till 8am without the alarm. And then stayed in bed till checkout. Wonderful time. Will visit again. Hopefully for longer!
