Nice place in a great location! We had 6 adults and felt like it was the perfect amount. Any more would have felt crowded. It looks like the number of beds listed doesnât match the photos theyâre under, but other than that it was great.
It had a great place to sit outside. Close to hiking, the suspension bridge and some good restaurants. The pillows werenât the greatest and the towels were a bit dingy. The shampoo dispenser in the shower was empty. Overall it was a comfortable place to stay.
Great host. Enjoyable and quiet neighborhood with many amenities. Lots of relaxing areas on several porches. Adjacent to house is a beautiful stream and walking path. Conveniently located to many attractions.
This property is spacious and the interior is beautiful. There is plenty of room to spread out (there were 6 of us) without feeling cramped. The house is convenient to downtown Vancouver without being in the middle of the city. The neighborhood is quiet with convenient access to Grouse Mountain, the Capilano Suspension Bridge, and other attractions, with just a short drive to Quay market, Stanley Park and the Aquarium, Chinatown, etc. Overall, a great experience.
Quiet neighbourhood that is great for walking. Close to a Stanley Park and good hiking trails, close to grocery stores. Very responsive host. Listing mentioned hot tub but there is not even a tub in this house. When we inquired about the hot tub prior to arrival host admitted there was no hot tub so we were not sure why this was mentioned in the listing. Having 5 bedrooms was great although some were rather small. Comfortable beds. Bathroom doors did not lock properly which led to some rather awkward moments! Host provided a high chair and playpen when we inquired about these things prior to arrival. They also brought over a new coffee maker when we noticed there was none in the kitchen.
Thanks for making this home available to our family!
We went in July. It was perfect size for our family vacation. We had 10 of us-6 adults and 4 kids. It was clean and there was decent about of living space and dining space and nicely decorated. Nice outdoor balcony. Nice neighborhood where we felt safe.
Some cons: Probably the biggest one was that we didnât realize it was a shared unit. This unit is upstairs and the host live downstairs. You have to climb up some steep wooden stairs to the unit so bit of a chore with your luggage. More importantly we didnât feel like we could relax with the kids because we didnât want them to be too noisy for the downstairs hosts. One night we wanted to enjoy the outside balcony. We were having a conversation and we would laugh at times. We were asked (Kindly) by hosts to keep the noise down, so we went inside and didnât use the balcony after that. So overall we just didnât feel like we could fully enjoy each others company because we had to be quiet a lot, even indoors.
The other thing is thereâs only really central air in the living areas. Thereâs a room a/c in the master room. Only fans in the other bedrooms so we had to open the windows a lot. So not quite as listed. No screen in the window in twin size room. There wasnât a remote to be able to use the entertainment system. So my husband paid $10 to download an app to be able to control entertainment center. To be fair we didnât ask the host to help with this. Overall good experience but not quite what we thought we were booking.
Itâs is beautiful house to stay in. The area is quiet and very nice neighbourhood. There are lots of things to do around the area. Highly recommended!!
