    Parking was very difficult near the house. Then very expensive to pay for. Probably a bit small for three adults

    Great location

    Access is via a bumpy walkway (difficult when wet with heavy suitcases), and latch on gate needs fixing. There are 3-4 very steep steps down to studio - need to be careful if wet from rain. Also not suitable for anyone who has difficulty managing steps; elderly mother struggled. Nice bathroom but nowhere to put toiletries. No little long-life milks for first arrival coffee. Sofa bed wasn’t made-up as requested, and no sheets or blankets where advised they would be. Found spare sheets eventually, but no blankets (luckily found spare doona/quilt cover).

    Quiet area. Close to cafes and restaurants. Close to Kitsilano beach. Affordable. Comfortable for a night.

    Little but cluttered, photos could do with updating. More tables n desks in there and no chairs to eat dinner. So had to stand or sit on couch n hold the meal with one hand. Bed was awful?! Not sure what is wrong with it. Looks to be held up with other mattress?? Side closest to the lounge was like sleeping in a hollow and very uncomfortable. Needs a new bed or some serious repairs?

    Location was fantastic, easy to get to the bus and skytrain. Food shops nearby and a circle K, just a block over. Was clean, tidy, bathroom all functioned well. Fan was a nice touch as it does get warm. Communication from the owner was good.

    The location near Kits Beach and transit, check in and out process, and sleeping arrangements with two beds was great. It was set up well for preparing easy meals and was spacious. Two suggestions: Set up a streaming service/access to one news channel. We had no luck using the app recommended to access our own Netflix so we had no TV access for 4 nights. Our daughter, who is extremely tech savvy (she lives in Vancouver), visited and couldn't make it work either. A couple of TV trays etc to eat by the day bed and ice trays would be nice.

    There is no kitchen, a small counter has an air fryer, microwave, coffee maker (no coffee filters though) and kettle. There is no sink. If you are the type that cooks food for your stays and needs a sink for doing dishes etc this place is not for you. This basement suite is NOT sound proof. You can hear the upstairs people talking, the TV and the footsteps above are very very LOUD.

    Check in was extremely easy, the owner sent detailed information on how to access the suite. The location was fantastic, close to two major transit routes and lots of stores, food and a no frills close by. Very walkable and location had a beautiful small city neighbourhood feel. The suite was clean, there was extra towels, pillows and sheets.

    The studio could have done with a bit more of a thorough clean.

    The location of the studio is great, just a short walk from Kitsilano Beach and an even shorter walk to the local deli and corner shop (the coffee and pastries in the deli are excellent). Extras such as shampoo and conditioner were provided, as well as tea, sugar, olive oil etc. It’s always welcome and a nice touch when a property host does this, and very much appreciated. Plenty of hot water too.

    It was not very clean on the ground. There were a small table to eat and a microwave, but only 1 chair (not exactly the best for two or more people).

    Nice place in a nice neighbourhood.

    Even though the directions to enter the property were spelled out with a picture, it was still hard to get in there when it was dark at night. I’m not sure how the host would fix this, however. I also found the lockbox really hard to work with. I had to put the code in many times in order to get it to pop open.

    Location was excellent. All the amenities very close by, very nice neighborhood. The place was very clean. Bed comfortable.

    The TV didn’t work, the bed area wasn’t that clean, not accurate as the pictures show on Booking and we hear every footsteps of the neighbors upstairs. Like every move. Super loud. Should be fine if you only stay one short night.

    The location is good. Near but and near downtown (15 min)

    Kitchen could be made a bit more convenient, I didn't mind washing the dishes in the bathroom, but regarding other things, for example: instead of the big TV could be a kitchen table with 2 foldable chairs, a pod using coffee machine etc.

    Location is absolutely amazing, close to transit and the beach. Streets are quiet and safe, there is a great cafe nearby. Place was comfortable and clean.
