Clean, quiet, close to airport and cruise port. Good communication from host. Will stay again if I'm back in Vancouver
In a residential neighborhood. Easy access after hours. Great communication by host. Quiet, calm, peaceful space. Shared toilet and shower rooms. Room #5 faces the street needs privacy curtain. Bed was fine but a bit firm. Plenty of outlets. Nice decor.
Beautiful, quiet and safe environment both inside and outside, convenient to go everywhere within Vancouver, totally exceeds my expectations with a fantastic price. Host is very kind and helpful for all my requests, must choose for my next tour in Vancouver.
Know that if you are not on first floor you have to navigate steps with your suitcase. Second floor room was a bit warm for us. Beautiful property, clean and great manager.
The house was very comfortable. They had everything I needed, I couldn't hear a sound from outside my room. I slept very well, had plenty of room, and everything felt clean and well maintained. I'd definitely stay here again the next time I'm in Vancouver!

Great house! Nice rooms. Second time ive stayed here. Great option for those looking for an affordable room at the edge of downtown!
This is a large, lovely old house. I had a HUGE bedroom that was probably one of the original reception rooms in the house. Access to the house was easy and as explained although I did have to lug my heavy luggage up several stairs to get to the front door. I appreciated having a downstairs bathroom opposite my room as I had occasion to use it several times during the night. There was mood lighting in the bedroom and a desktop lamp but I really needed a bedside lamp as the high ceilings meant that lighting for reading in bed was poor. For some reason I found myself unable to charge my cell phone overnight but this could have been a user error as I am not a very "techie" person. There was a welcome booklet from the owners and it suggested using Uber rather than taxis. However, I have never used Uber and there was no explanation as to how to use it so I booked myself a taxi. There was common access to a kitchen equipped with a fridge, microwave, dishwasher, etc. and tea and coffee together with cups, saucers, cutlery, kettle and coffeepot were all provided. I made myself a cup of tea but then realised that the milk in the fridge probably belonged to one of the other patrons so drank it black. I briefly encountered two other people in passing during my stay but had no idea whether they were the owners or other patrons.
One concern I had was that the large window in my bedroom faced the street. While the noise from passing traffic was minimal, there were only sheers on the window
The property is extremely clean and the beds are very comfortable.

Beautiful stay at a beautiful home. Comforts of home and cozy, but elegant hotel quality. Owners are so kind. We so appreciated the space to relax during our trip to Vancouver! Thank you, host family!
Check in/out was smooth and the host was very accommodating. All my needs were met for a short two night stay, and it was a great experience! Definitely recommend!
Sam was an amazing host! He’s very hands-on in cleaning the property and managing it. Quick to respond to questions and very efficient with his time. I love my room downstairs! it’s just a perfect fit for me. So cozy and quiet!
Thank you again, Sam, for being a great host and providing us a great accomodation to stay at, not to mention making it affordable at the same time (considering the cost of hotels in Vancouver).
All the best! :)
