I have owned a condo in this building for the past 5 years and am please by the many changes I have seen Aside from a healthy contingency fund the interior has had major and ongoing upgrades The most unique feature of this building is that each suite has it's own character and layout definately not your typical new cookie cutter feel I love the fact that I am able to walk to Uptown Tillicum and downtown and that we never have to face traffic jams to get home The bus stop is seconds from our door which makes an easy commute to UVIC for me I feel I must be honest and give our home a 2 stars and a wish rating Star one Location Star two new strata leadership and neighborhood feel Wish a little more attention and TLC to the exterior of the building Although we have a landscaping service often our hedges are messy looking and the grass a bit unkept Overall I enjoy our home and love the fact we are a pet family friendly building

I lived in this building for almost ten years and enjoyed the mature gardens and all the facilities it has to offer pool hot tub sauna gymnasium workshop billiards room but you know what they say about location location location This building has it walking distance to the new Uptown shopping complex Tillicum Mall Mayfair Mall and a great park just one block away that's very convenient for walking your dog Also very close to the Galloping Goose trail and the ocean which is just a 10 minute walk or a 3 minute bike ride The suites are very large and when compared to some of the new buildings that have small floor space for large dollars this building is a great value especially when you consider that your mortgage is probably going to be less than what it would cost you to rent This building is a great place to live for anyone who requires easy access to many convenient shopping locations or who wants to be very close to the downtown core without feeling overwhelmed by tall buildings When you add up the large size of these suites and all the amenities you won't find in many newer buildings plus the fantastically convenient location the units in this building really should be selling for far more which makes Eldon Place a solid choice for someone looking to preserve the dollars they might otherwise put toward rent

Units are large and bright Many units have large storage closets extra storage is available with a short waiting list Has a pool hot tub sauna billiards room and weight room Children and pets OK Rentals with a limit of 5 allowed It is not well maintained Hallways are in sad need of updating Gardens are randomly maintained Overall cleanliness and maintenance is sketchy Council is led around by the nose by an unlicensed manager Council and management enforce bylaws very unevenly many owners have been the recipient of both favourtism and targeting The units don't sell for what they should for two reasons poor location near industrial part of Burnside and poor maintenance
