Guest Reviews
- Lesley (7/5): Very good value - By chance we were the only people staying, near to Main Street and shops, clean with very good security measures.excellent shower. Metro station was far away but Ubers were very quick. One set of towels per stay, ours was 6 days. During our stay they cancelled us for the following week for no reason, very disappointed in this. It could be a very noisy house if all rooms were occupied as it has all hard surfaces and no soundproofing.
- Mat (9/5): Superb - No Breakfast provided Bedside lamp was not working. I had to get a globe from the lounge and fit it to the bedside lamp.
TV did not have any local channels to choose from.
- Lieselotte (8/5): A lovely, genteel old house, with comfortable facilities, and very clean. - The area was lovely, very genteel! The house was beautiful and the kitchen had everything we needed for a short stay - all very clean and tidy. Bedroom and bed small and simple, but good enough. We enjoyed exploring the neighbourhood, and the location was convenient to public transport. Communications were very formal, with lots of rules, and no personal contact.
- Carla (8/5): Very good -
- Michelle (10/5): Peaceful calm location with beautiful tree lined streets. - Our stay was only overnight, but we enjoyed the quietness of the surrounding houses. We felt safe parking our car on the street and we were not disturbed by any overnight noises.
The house was beautifully decorated in a minimalist look, but felt homely and welcoming.
We were able to have a late lunch and breakfast in the kitchen area and enjoyed the natural light coming in from the windows.
The lawns needed mowing, but with an overall feeling of the garden and house was peaceful and restful. The whole area was peaceful and calm and quiet and we enjoyed the stay in this family home. I didn't realise that our room did not have a shower and that we had to use a common area shower. We were lucky that we were the only guests there. So privacy was not a problem.
- Anonymous (10/5): Nice place - Nice neighbourhood, peaceful area. The living room looks very fancy I would like to have someone actually come to host us, to show us around our room and how to check in instead of through email. But the email with all the instructions is very detailed and straightforward to understand.
- Paola (10/5): Exceptional - It was all pretty good and enjoyable, a relaxing time for us on the cruise. Thank you for your hospitality in inviting us.
- Terry (9/5): A beautiful house in Vancouver - A beautiful house with a shared bathroom and kitchen The thin walls with noisy people in the next room.
- Chandrasekaran (9/5): Superb -
- Anonymous (7/5): Good -
- Deslauriers (10/5): Great - Nice and clean, in town, close to the aiport Nothing
- Sun (9/5): Superb -
- Travis (10/5): Exceptional -
- Welter (1/5): Bad -
- Steven (8/5): Very good -
- Anonymous (5/5): everything was good except the fact that the other people there are being loud during quiet hours - it’s late around 10:30 and the other people staying have all the lights on in the house are there so loud i wasn’t able to sleep
- Yutong (9/5): Superb - The room is clean and house location is very convenient.
- Shota (10/5): Exceptional -
- Ka (8/5): Very good -
- Ted (6/5): Never again!!! - It was a very clean home Nobody at the home to greet you at all during your stay. The bedroom was very small with no TV, no shower or bathtub, no iron or ironing board, no blow dryer. It was a very weird feeling to go into an empty home. The kitchen did not have dish towels, dish soap, paper towels, or napkins. We did not feel comfortable in this home at all!
There was another quest in the home. He was a man and had not seen anyone during his stay either, except for a young girl who he thought was the cleaning lady. She only said, “ I don't speak English!”
- Beth (5/5): Passable -
- Janine (6/5): Could be awesome, if cleaner and with considerate other guests - +great location (amazing Asian restaurants and supermarket in less than 10min walking distance, same for busses to downtown (about 45min trip) credit card tap in system
+ quiet neighbourhood
+ nice spacious house
+(mostly) clean floors
+easy self-check-in (timely and good information about access codes provided)
+ good WiFi with password - queen suite (only has private toilet, shower is shared with all rooms)
- No explanation for recycling (what goes in which bin - this differs in all countries), other guests don't adhere to it, fill up bins in the craziest ways and don't take them out to the garden as instructed by host guidelines
- No markings for space in the fridge (you have to move stuff from others to make yourself a space; old open gross food left by other guests)
- No reminders to clean kitchen space after usage (other guests leave sink and counters dirty, leave dirty dishes in sink)
- Aircon shared for the entire apartment (be prepared for a battle with other guests about who pressed the button last - it is 11C at night - I don't want aircon as the dry air is making me cough!
- Automatic lights (that turn off with no movement or something) in the hallway would be great, hallway light is really bright and shines into all rooms
- Mediocre cleanliness: there was dried on pee on the private toilet of our room when we arrived. The floor was clean except for very dusty areas behind where the door sits when open. The mirrors were all streaky - please use vinegar/ glass cleaner and a microfiber cloth to clean these next time (the sink looked like it had not seen proper cleaner in a while either)
- No spare toilet paper roll or toilet brush in private bathroom
- general issues with other guests: they come home at 1.00am make noise laughing loudly, stomping and pulling doors shut loudly instead of turning the handle, turn on aircon and leave hallway light on. Great to be woken up like that, having to get up and turn off lights myself..
- It might be good to inform guests about how the handle locks in the house work, I nearly ran into other guests using the bathroom who did not lock the door...unpleasant for everyone involved. I understand that people who have not encountered these locks might not realise how they work/ that they exist.
- Dorise (1/5): couldn’t get in. had to leave my luggage and set out on foot to find a cab and a new hotel - stranded in vancouver at 11pm. no fun n/a
- Shreyash (10/5): Exceptional -
- Fuller (8/5): Very good -
- Alex (9/5): Superb -
- Brooke (10/5): Great stay, would stay here again! - The location was safe and close to downtown, which I appreciated as I was attending the Taylor Swift concert! N/A
- Jody (10/5): Clean, safe area , lots of room for everyone. - Close to the airport and in a lovely safe neighborhood. Nothing in walking distance, which we knew but made for a nice quiet stay.
- Yudy (10/5): Would definitely book again! - I loved the location and the home itself was so gorgeous!
