Inclusions

What comes with every Norvale suite

Three lists: what is in every suite, what varies by building, and what is not included. The third list is the one worth reading. Most complaints in this industry come from something a guest assumed was there.

Standard

In every suite

Living and sleeping

Beds made on arrival
Queen or king, with a mattress protector, duvet, two pillows per person and a spare set of linen.
Towels and bath linen
Two bath towels, one hand towel and one face cloth per guest, plus a bath mat.
Living room seating
Sofa, side table and lighting. Two bedroom suites seat four.
Dining table
A table you can eat at and work from, with chairs for the suite capacity.
Blackout window coverings
In every bedroom.

Kitchen

Full-size appliances
Fridge, freezer, stove and oven. Dishwasher in most suites — listed per suite.
Cookware and bakeware
Pots, pans, baking sheet, chopping boards, knives, utensils, colander, mixing bowls.
Dishes and glassware
Place settings for the suite capacity plus two, including mugs, wine and water glasses.
Small appliances

Arrival basics
Coffee, tea, sugar, salt, pepper, oil, dish soap, sponge, paper towel, bin liners and toilet paper.

Utilities and services

A full clean before every arrival. Mid-stay cleaning included every two weeks on stays of 60 nights or more.
Vacuum and cleaning kit
For day-to-day tidying between visits.
Local support
A Toronto contact who answers, and a maintenance route for anything that breaks.
Building dependent

Varies by building and suite

Where something is not universal, we list it per suite rather than describing the best case and hoping.

What is not included

Nothing here is a criticism of the suites. It is the gap between a furnished apartment and a hotel, stated plainly so nobody discovers it on day two.

Daily housekeeping
This is housing, not a hotel. Cleaning is scheduled, not daily. Extra cleans can be arranged at cost.
Groceries beyond the arrival basics
We stock enough for the first morning. After that the kitchen is yours.
Toiletries beyond the first day
A starter set of soap and shampoo is provided. Replacements are not.
Pets by default
Some suites accept pets, some buildings do not permit them. Always ask first — do not assume.
Parking as standard
Where available it is charged separately and allocated on request.
Airport transfers
We can arrange one and it will appear on your invoice as a separate line.
Personal insurance
Our coverage protects the building and its contents, not your belongings.

If something you need is not on any of these lists, ask before you book rather than after you arrive. We can arrange a good deal more than we include as standard — accessible fittings, an extra bed, a second parking space, a longer-term storage solution — and it is far easier to sort out three weeks ahead than on a Sunday night.

Questions about a specific suite?

Each suite page lists its own features. If the page does not answer it, ask us and we will check rather than guess.
