Very clean & convenient
Very easy to access as owners live in attached duplex, room are in the back via separate coded entrance. He came down to check us in. Room was modern & clean in a very safe neighborhood. Very comfortable bed. Close to bus line & airport as we were just here for a layover. Common area downstairs with 3 bedrooms upstairs. Definitely recommend.

Extremely happy traveller.
This was great location with only a short 5 min walk to the bus stop, and a further 5-7 mins to transit train station. 10mins to Vancouver airport by train. 10 mins to save on grocery store and other takeaway options. The property inside has everything you need. The kitchen is well maintained and stocked with electrical appliances should you choose to eat in. The bedrooms and bathrooms are modern and clean. The bathroom and kitchen are communal, but are cleaned daily. Rooms are air conditioned making summer stays comfortable. The owners are friendly and welcoming, giving a full briefing on arrival. The general neighbourhood is quiet and safe. I am extremely happy happy with my choice, would highly recommend this guesthouse.

Great stay. Easy walk to Save on and lots of restaurants. We’d never stayed in shared accommodation before. The manager was very easy to deal with and informative. She allowed us to keep our bags in the building as we had a later flight. Would definitely recommend.

Comfortable bed and everything we would have wanted in the kitchen. Stairs aren’t easy to navigate with heavy bags but good exercise. Bathroom clean and well appointed. Easy walk to Safeway for food.

Enjoyed Our Stay
Quaint little place with very friendly owners. We enjoyed our stay. The only "ding" was that the room was not really large enough to open a suitcase except on the bed. We made do, though, and the hosts were great.
Not especially close to main Vancouver attractions, but easy transit system, and it IS close to the airport!

Interior design was pleasing to the eye and gave me a sense of comfort, similar to one I have at my home.
