Clean and cozy

The room was great! I loved the shower (room 2). They did have a cat, if someone has allergies. The host was friendly and helpful. We stayed for one night before our cruise; we used an uber.

Really liked how quiet it was, very peaceful space, and you're right next to a bus stop, like a few steps away which will take you all the way to Metrotown. They do have a cat, which I'm a little allergic to, but I don't mind them around. But I only saw the cat once out of my five days, so if you're concerned, they're mostly upstairs.

I never really rate stuff online, so I really just had to share my experience. My mom and I stayed here for 4 days and 3 nights. Check in was smooth and easy. The room we stayed in had a great view of the front yard and the overall cleanliness was amazing. The bathroom as well was very clean and spacious! They also have 2 rag doll cats that would occasionally appear and I absolutely adored that. The hosts were also the sweetest and helped with everything that I inquired immediately. Keep in mind to whoever decides to book in the future it is an airbnb/hotel type-esque vibe, so you may or may not interact with other guests! All in all my entire experience here was great and I would definitely book again in the future :)

Quiet and conveniently located near the airport. My room was in the basement but was bright and airy. I shared a bathroom with one other rented room. There was a common area with a coffee station and kitchenette for both rooms, and a nice patio with lounge chairs outside.

Jared

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Genuinely shocked at how many good reviews this place has (which is why I booked in the first place). The property has a shared bathroom that was COVERED in black mold. Another guest who was sharing the space with me had checked out while I was there so I thought they would've cleaned the shower and bathroom between guests, but they did not. Also 2 of the 3 showers I had were completely ice cold, surrounded by mold. As someone with respiratory issues this was very worrisome to be around especially as there is only 1 shared shower. Not a pleasant experience at all. The room was spacious, but didn't have as luxe of a feel as the photos would suggest. Overall I would not recommend staying here, especially since it was $750 for 3 nights. I reached out to see if a partial refund could be given due to the unsanitary conditions but they refused. The hosts should be ashamed charging that much for a moldy bathroom shared between multiple guests. Will be reporting to BC Health authority.

Just ok

We did not realize that we would be staying in someone’s home. I guess that is what “host” referred to. It was clean but small with few amenities. It was not a place to relax, only sleep. It was very overpriced for what we received.
