Guest Reviews
- Grace (7/5): - Clean and comfortable Video survlance camera in kitchen living room area. Would hesitate to return or recommend to others because of that. The host insitits on removing shoes however theslippers provided were much too small and a tripping hazard on the circular stairs
- E.J (9/5): Very Good -
- Isabelle (8/5): - Près de l’aéroport, chambre spacieuse avec toutes les commodités.
- Nicole (8/5): - The host was lovely and welcoming. Very clean rooms, bathrooms and kitchen facilities. The bed was hard
- Terry Kwok Hung (8/5): - 屋主很友善, 廚房內設備齊全,可自行煮食。只行三分鐘就有一間大超市,方便購物。交通上算方便,有一兩公共巴士,只需十幾分鐘就去到轉鐵路出downtown,往機場公巴轉鐵路亦很方便。環境幽靜和室內物件乾淨。
- Ricardo (10/5): Excellent Price/Comfort ratio - would 100% Recommend - - Clean
- Comfortable Beds
- Decent Amenities
- Great Location Not much, maybe more toiletry options.
- K Gan (10/5): Like Coming Home From So Far - A room in a large, clean and beautiful house in a quiet residential area. The common sitting area is very comfortably furnished while the kitchen is large, spotless and extremely well equipped with many different types of cookers. There's complimentary coffee from a machine. A shopping mall is within walking distance. The likeable host makes you feel like you are an old friend coming to stay. We were allowed to check in much earlier than regulation time. It's just a touch too far from the nearest SkyTrain station but not too far if you are young and energetic.
- kai Chung (7/5): fair - air condition not enough towels in washroom
- Paula (8/5): -
- Björn (3/5): -
- Fogg (9/5): -
- Donna (7/5): We only stayed one night, l wouldn’t want to stay any longer than that. - Good location
Quiet
Easy access
Friendly host Room was very small
Bathroom could have been a little bit cleaner
- Malte (5/5): -
- Gary (6/5): Room 3 is ok but becareful with this property. This is a large private house renting out bedrooms. - We stayed at Go House on the way to Vancouver Island and when we came back for our return flight. Room Number 2 is not very good. See below. Room Number 3 is much better. The property is close to a bus stop for Richmond, Skytrain and Stevenson (recommended). Close by to restaurants and supermarkets. An Uber from the airport is around $20 CAD. Room 3 is a much better room. It dos have a proper en-suite. It has a sink and a kettle. There is a microwave outside the door. All rooms were clean. Beds were comfortable and all clean bedding. The price is cheap compared to the hotels nearby. I suppose you get what you pay for. We did not see Room number 1 to know if it has an en-suite bathroom. You need to becareful at this property. The house is owned by a Chinese family including children. It is not a commercial property or a house that has been converted for a BnB. It is just a big house and the owners rent some of the bedrooms out. Some of the photos give the impression of a large lounge but this is blocked off so the family can watch TV. We stayed in room 2 at the beginning of our trip. This room states "Private Bathroom". This is sort of true. The bedroom has no sink, kettle, TV, etc. Just the bed. The bathroom is on the landing. They put a notice on the door "Private Bathroom for room 2". The childrens room is between your room and the bathroom. The adults sleep just round the corner. Sorry that is not what I call a room with a private bathroom. You share the house with the family. Its like staying in a strangers house for a few nights.
- Frank (9/5): -
- Chia Hui (7/5): - 位於住宅區,所以整體環境很安靜。 我們訂的房間有專屬衛浴,但並不在房間內。訂房頁面沒有明確說明。
- Victor (7/5): Good for quick stay close to airport - Close to the airport , clean but cluttered, good size room, staff was kind & helpful. Synthetic sheets clutter, pillows way too soft & need more than one.
- Wendy (7/5): -
- Jana (7/5): Ok - Zimmer war groß Waschmaschine nur gegen 10 CAD Aufpreis. Wir hatten die Unterkunft wegen der Waschmaschine gebucht und waren dann über die doch etwas unverschämte Forderung verärgert.
- Brooke (4/5): -
- ALIREZA (10/5): - Near airport. Good facilities. Large room. Near shopping area.
- Christian (8/5): - Contrat non rempli à l'arrivée. Etait prévu une chambre pour 3 personnes et 1 chambre pour 1 personne. or, il nous a été proposé 2 chambres pour 2 personnes. Il a fallu négocier avec insistance auprès de notre hôte pour obtenir ce qui était prévu. Au final, tout est rentré dans l'ordre.
- Magalie (10/5): - La chambre est très joliment décorée, très grande comme un petit studio avec un grand lit très confortable. Il y a tout ce qu il faut pour se faire un thé, faire une petite vaisselle et manger un petit encas. La propriétaire a été très agréable, le quartier est très calme.
- rhoyx (9/5): Top Value for Money - A Stay I’d Gladly Recommend - - My room was very spacious and had its own bathroom and walk-in closet.
- Very well equipped space
- Located in a quiet neighbourhood, it is within walking distance of public transit and close to all the main attractions by car
- Friendly host and prompt communication over the app. - It was very close to the airport so during early evening (my bed time) I could still hear the roar of the plane engines.
- A fan would have been a nice addition. My room was a little warm and although I left the windows open it did little cool me down.
- A TV would have been nice.
- Mary (7/5): Go House provided a clean and safe place to stay in a great location for the event we were attending in Richmond - It was very clean and a great location. The bedding was mediocre; the pillows weren’t that comfortable, and 2 more would have been helpful.
The comforter did not fit the king sized bed.

- Richart (8/5): - Très calme, propre, bien équipé. Dans un quartier avec des maisons incroyables ! Proche de l'aéroport et d'une zone commerciale à 10min à pieds, avec Mc Do, Starbucks, épiceries,...La propriétaire a été très accueillante.
- Fabrizio (8/5): Angolo cottura cercasi - La struttura è molto accogliente e pulita. La camera e bagno grandi . Cucina attrezzata con pentole e posate. La posizione è un po fuori dal centro (30 minuti di auto o 50 minuti con i mezzi, indicativamente).
Abbiamo trascorso 2 bei giorni.
L'unica cosa negativa è che sui servizi c'è scritto "angolo cottura", quando invece non c'è niente per cucinare, se non un forno a microonde.
La ragazza cinese che ci ha accolto ci ha detto di usare il nostro fornelletto che avevamo e di accendere la ventola per non fare odori, ma solo una volta.
Menomale avevamo il nostro fornelletto da campeggio, altrimenti non potevamo cucinare niente...
- Lois (10/5): It was everything we needed - We left very early and didn’t stay for breakfast It was just what we needed… a stop over night place where we could get a good , comfortable sleep after a long flight from Melbourne on our way to Toronto. Didn’t want to spend a fortune on things we wouldn’t use etc. this was perfect
- Verena (8/5): -
- Jacqui__B (7/5): -
- Dara (6/5): Pleasant - Neighborhood was fine, close to mall for eating, price was good compared to very expensive hotels that were other option. No air conditioning, no tv
- David (9/5): Superb - Owners were very friendly and helpful. Close to supermarket.
- Elizabeth (9/5): Great homestay - Huge room with loads of light, a little area with kettle and sink with cups and plates etc and an area to sit and eat. Big comfy bed. Located within walking distance to supermarket. Close to airport by car. It’s great location for airport but further from central Vancouver
- Ruth (7/5): Good - The share spaces were good. Nice neighbourhood Pillows were not great. The room was just in the entrance so bit noisy.
- Gregory (9/5): Go House. Richmond BC. - Go House is in a quiet location with local stores for all your food requirements just a short 10 minute walk away
For major shopping and the Sky train, a 30 minute walk through the neighborhood
Busses run past the local shopping centre and go to other centers like Steveston village. Go house is very accommodating but cooking facilities are very basic, a microwave is the main method of cooking.
A great coffee machine is available for visitors to use.
- Xin (9/5): Superb -
- Brynja (7/5): Nice place to stay if you don't have mobility issues like me. - Nice house in a nice neighborhood, walking distance from coffee shop, food, grocery store, and local shopping. I felt safe staying there and going out to eat the next morning. I specifically booked this location because the description said "Entire unit located on ground floor" and that was what I needed because I have an ankle injury. I received an email during my flight confirming my room would be on the ground floor, but that email was rescinded 25 minutes later, and I was given a room on the second floor, which was difficult to access due to my ankle injury.
- Sandy (6/5): Underwhelming Stay - Pleasant neighborhood and the coffee area was quite nice. We were warmly greeted. Very spartan room with an odd assortment of furniture. The door had some kind of egg carton foam topper glued to it as a sound barrier. So weird. There was no TV, no proper reading lamp, no kleenex, and no adequate area to do your hair or makeup. The bathroom had a couple of mismatched towels, no facecloths, only one lightbulb in the 3 light fixture, and some 3/4 empty body wash bottles in the shower. The room was clean except the shower track and wall by the sink needed a deep clean. Why are all the cleaning supplies and tools by the toilet? It felt like we were staying in a reluctant relative's spare room.
- Kim (9/5): Superb -
- Rho-ann (10/5): Clean and convenient to stay. I highly recommend 😊 - Clean and convenient Very accessible
- Alain (9/5): Superb -
- Ann (10/5): Exceptional - Fiona was very helpful, every request was handled perfectly and we felt like we're in our home away from home. There was parking in the street too. Very commendable! Nothing!
- Kevin (8/5): Very good - Location I thought the pillow was smelly.
- Diane (8/5): Good location just outside the city, close to the airport. Quiet and comfortable - The property was in a quiet residential location close to transport links; buses and skytrain. The room had an en-suite and there was a shared kitchen which was very handy.
- Yun (8/5): Very good -
- Brian (10/5): Great value for money!! - Excellent value for money. Lovely neighbourhood, close to shops, 30 minute walk to sky train to downtown/airport.
Very clean en-suite room. Lovely comfortable bed. Great shower.
Very useful having a shared fridge/microwave etc.
Fiona was friendly and resolved an issue we had, immediately.
Would highly recommend. Liked everything.
- Ailyn (10/5): Comfortable - The view, quite area and very clean
- Vasu (10/5): Exceptional -
- Icy (5/5): Passable - The location Need to let folks know which room they book. It’s so confusing that they have multiple rooms available but no information on which rooms one booked. Sent message after arrival to clarify but no response. Had to get up after midnight to switch room!
- Gervais (10/5): Exceptional - Friendly, great location, ensuite bathroom.
- Shirley (9/5): Superb - Easy to get to public transportation, bus stop is closed to the place. A street mall is only 10 minutes walk, lots of shops around, there's also MacDonald there which I went every morning.
Fiona, the host is very friendly and helpful. Room is very clean n tidy. Nice and quiet around the area.
Would like to stay if I go to visit Vancouver again.
- Bobbie (1/5): Bad - Location was great. Someone came into our room when we were out & looked in our suitcases, because of this I would not stay there again. In the morning, I dropped something that rolled under the bed, it does not get cleaned under the bed as there were a number of items under there, and it was very dirty.
- Dannyl (10/5): Exceptional -
- Arjun (10/5): Exceptional -
- Kai (7/5): Good -
- Michele (10/5): Excellent value and hospitality. - Super friendly support.
- Patricia (9/5): Superb -
- Tami (10/5): Excellent! Super comfy bed and quilt. Nice and clean. - Totally clean and super comfy bed and quilt! Really nice to have coffee and tea when we needed it most (during an early morning depart)
- Kacper (10/5): Exceptional - I spent a month in a room with a private bathroom, and it was amazing! The room was very comfortable, clean, and well-equipped. Having a private bathroom was a huge plus – always clean and functional. The location of the property was also excellent, with everything I needed close by. The staff were very friendly and helpful throughout my stay. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a comfortable and hassle-free long-term stay! Nothing evething was perfect
- Patti (9/5): Superb -
- Steve (10/5): Easy choice for a great stay in comfort and quiet location but close to airport and malls - Spotless clean, close to airport and handy to mall and restaurants.excellent value, super nice manager Fiona..
Washing machine and dryer used for free👍
- Alain (9/5): Superb -
- Juraeva (10/5): Very nice and cozy! - Very clean and cozy!
- Abhirami (9/5): Superb -
- Isobel (9/5): We had a short couple of days before going home and this was near the airport so it fitted the bill - This accommodation was very comfortable and the host charming. Nothing
- Ty (10/5): Exceptional -
- Robyn (5/5): Passable -
- Harry (10/5): Exceptional -
- Jack (10/5): Exceptional -
- Tracy (10/5): Beautiful home in a very nice neighborhood - Everything was great. The only issue was all the construction in the area which, of course, was out of their control. The only thing that could have been better was knowing what in the kitchen was available for guests.
- Gordon (5/5): Passable -
- Margaret (9/5): Very comfortable. Also if you arrive late they send you access code to get into your room. That worked out great. Also t - It was great location to finish our holiday near the airport. 25$ standard fare. Nearby there is a good shopping mall 5 mins walk away. We stayed two nights and went to the designer shopping mall near the airport on one day. Also the 402 bus takes you to Richmond and they have a great shopping mall. They are every 30 minutes about a 15 min journey. excellent value for what we paid. Highly recommended. Nice neighborhood. no comment. It was good
- Jayanti (8/5): Satisfied - Quiet, clean and sleep well in this place and get private bathroom. There is a free drink and coffee too. Everything is good and we get the room in a first floor without request, it made us easy to stroll our 2 big luggages before we headed our cruise. Appreciate that. Non
- Joanna (9/5): Superb -
- Nicola (9/5): Exceelent location for airport. - Great quiet location especially for getting to airport in aneighbour where you can walk to shops/restaurants and take a turn aound the park.
- De (7/5): Good -
- A. (9/5): Superb -
- Tracy (10/5): Exceptional - Nice host, nice location and easy check in
- Robert (10/5): I would stay here again for sure. - Very clean house. Beautiful garden. Quiet neighborhood.
- Jean (9/5): Excellent - Proximity to airport No Tv
- Linda (9/5): It was a clean room - The bed was too firm
- Roberta (9/5): Wonderful accommodation close to the airport. - Only 15 minutes to the airport. Huge guest common area with kitchen facilities and . Good size room with comfortable bed and private bathroom in a beautiful home. Very friendly staff! Surpassed my expectations! The only negative thing for me was the very strong flowery scent of the bed sheets. I am sensitive to scents, but I understand that this may not bother others.
- Claudia (9/5): Superb - This place is great if you're an introverted traveller who prefers to be private, like us. The contact-free check-in worked well, we met the owner shortly later in the evening.
The room was cozy, the adjoining bathroom was large and clean, and the shared kitchen was large and included generous space in the fridge, and separate kitchenware for each room, clearly labelled.
This place is especially well-situated if you want to reach the airport. But it's also well-connected to reach Vancouver centre. The only short confusion was about which room was ours when we arrived - we decided to take the only room with a key on the door. Maybe this could be improved in the future with clearer information?
- Maria (10/5): Perfect - Very clean. Great location for the airport. Extremely helpful staff.
- Tzu-shan (10/5): Exceptional -
- Diana (9/5): Superb -
- Alexander (9/5): Superb -
- David (10/5): After a long arduous journey I really needed this trouble free, comfortable, restful night. - Although I arrived several hours late, at 1:30 in the morning, with no warning, the mangeress came from her home within minutes to let me in. Everything was spotlessly clean, comfortable and tasteful. The only negative thing I can fnd to say is there was no toothmug in the bathroom.
- Anni (10/5): Exceptional - Friendly and easy communication, very clean, nice place to stay.
- Suzanne (8/5): It was great, would stay again - Everything was great. If anything, you could hear the walking around above us really early and really late.
- Debra (7/5): Was convenient and comfortable - and very clean ! - Close to airport - comfortable , clean and quiet . Perfect for a quick stopover . No TV in our private bedroom but there was one in communal lounge .
- Charlene (1/5): Did not stay as they rented our paid room to someone else! - They had overbooked the rooms. When we arrived they told us our room was taken by someone else. They refunded us and we had to find another hotel at the last minute and at a much higher cost. They had overbooked the rooms. When we arrived they told us our room was taken by someone else.

- Ella (9/5): Superb -
- Black (8/5): Good stay - Good location yo the airport
- Sin (8/5): A good place for us refueling and recharging up. - Everything was good. The owner, Lucy, was friendly and welcoming. She tried her best to meet and properly assist our needs. The house was spacious and comfortable. The standard room size was not large, but there was enough space. The bathroom was clean. At the current price, it was worth the money, especially if you don't have excessively high requirements and expectations. It is worth a try. You could put more effort into making your website clearer so that customers aren't misled when looking for a location. For example, a deluxe Queen Room should be labeled as such and not as a deluxe King Room. It's important to accurately reflect that the room can only accommodate 2 guests, not 3. This is important to us as tenants are looking for a place to stay.
- Jonathan (10/5): Nice short stay! - Good place to stay. Good communication from the host. There is a Blundell Mall nearby just 5~8mins by walk. Easy to get groceries and meal. I like it! No
- Felix (10/5): Exceptional -
- Hernan (7/5): Good -
