This is a very spacious apartment with an excellent, professional-grade kitchen. The host is highly responsive. The bedroom faces a busy road but the sound of passing cars did not disturb our sleep. Light sleepers might want to use earplugs.

Delightful, lovely home with real character; stands out in a city with an awful lot of new-built and minimal laneway houses and basement conversions. Quietly helpful host. Choose this in a heartbeat if it’s available!

Everything was exactly as described and was close to all the things we wanted to see. Loved that it was steps from public transportation as we use that when visiting cities. So much room to move around for the two of us. Everything we needed was there!

All the comforts of home!

I would give this place100 stars if I could. Super comfortable bed, excellent shower, well provisioned kitchen, full-sized washer and dryer, convenient to Translink trains and buses and a supermarket. Also lots of space and tastefully decorated. AND a friendly, helpful, but not intrusive property owner on site. (Thank you Susana.) It just doesn’t get any better than this!

The home was cozy and clean. Close enough to downtown and North Vancouver to enjoy all the sites. The host was very communicative and kind. As shown in photos, be prepared for stairs to access the unit.

Vancouver stay

Great place to use as a base for activities in Vancouver. Lots of traffic was expected at the site and indeed there was traffic, but we had a close parking space that was very convenient. The power went out briefly and Susana was very attentive. JE

Spacious and Beautifully Decorated

We really enjoyed our stay. Our host was amazing, welcoming and generous. The unit is so spacious, each room was very comfortable, and so well decorated. One of the best furnished units we have ever been in. We loved the area as well! The street noise was a little noisy for sleeping so the white noise machine was helpful. Thank you for your hospitality.
