We really enjoyed our stay in this apartment. It was very clean, cosily furnished and very well equipped. We felt at home and would love to come back anytime. The hosts were very friendly and accommodating.
Our go-to accommodation when paying our annual visit to see family in Vancouver which is the best recommendation we can give. Although only three of us stay in the apartment, there is plenty of room for a couple of visiting family and everything you need to provide them with dinner! The location is ideal for a number of bus routes to Downtown and over to the North Shore and an excellent choice of shops and cafés on Hastings Street are only three blocks away. Odette and Ron are excellent hosts and live above so are invariably on hand to answer any queries you may have. Saving has already started for our next visit!
We loved our stay in East Vancouver. We were able to walk to the grocery store and many eateries nearby. Odette is such a lovely person and very welcoming. We enjoyed the space each morning with plenty of kitchen amenities to make breakfast. If we come back to Vancouver, we'll stay here again!
This Vancouver property was not only convenient as a tourist home base but immensely livable. Clean beyond reproach, comfortable and lovely interior plus the added charm of an outside sitting area surrounded by the garden. The host went above and beyond for n”necessities” like tea and coffee! Highly recommend this property.
Our stay at this very comfortable, spacious, fully equipped unit met our expectations and worked really well as home base for exploring Vancouver and area. Located in a quite neighborhood with restaurants and market close by.
Owners were very friendly and helpful!
Darryl and Pam
It is apparent that Odette cares about comfort and ease of stay from motion detector lights guiding us to the door at night to plenty of pillows and towels. Beautifully remoddled, spacious, equiped and with cute outdoor space.
We spent 5 nights in this appartment in Vancouver It is in the private house of the owners, who are very nice and welcoming. Everything was as it should be and we felt "at home" right away. Reaching Downtown Vancouver as very easy by public transport. We strongly recommend this accomodation. Thanks again for having us!
We had such an excellent stay. It was very clean and welcoming. Very well stocked - bedding, towels and toiletries, pantry. Our teens loved the aesthetic with the Christmas lights, chocolates on the pillows and the books. It was warm with heated floors which was a nice touch in the basement. Tonnes of natural light. Easy access to public transit. Couldn’t have asked for more for our Swiftcouver stay!
The apartment fitted our needs so well whilst visiting family last year we didn't even think about looking for alternatives. Comfortable, well equipped and handy for the excellent public transport network to Downtown and the North Shore which is important to us as we don't have a car. If travelling from YVR with lots of luggage I would recommend a taxi though. Odette and Ron are excellent hosts and always a pleasure to pass the time of day with when we meet.
Great communication with hostess, clean and perfect for our family stay before our AK cruise.
We took Uber a lot and eventually rented a car due to weather. There is a lot within waking distance and I am sure bus transport would be fine as well.
Thank you. Odette
good location clean and spacious. friendly hosts. there is street parking but it’s sort of assigned right in front of the house so it is convenient. there is wifi but no tv. that did not bother me because we were here to explore vancouver not watch tv however if for some reason that is really important to you be aware which is why i bring it up.
Our third stay here which says it all really. The apartment is comfortable, well equipped in a quiet residential area yet convenient for shops and restaurants etc on Hastings Street three blocks away. If you don’t have a car then there’s ready access to a multitude of bus routes to access Downtown, the North Shore or Skytrain stations at Nanaimo or Renfrew. New Brighton and Hastings Parks are within a few minutes’ walking distance. Odette and Ron are great hosts and live above so are able to deal with any queries promptly.
This is a pleasant basement property - all very clean with a good shower. The beds are a bit squeaky but comfortable. Wi-Fi was good. You do hear the owners moving around upstairs but that is the downside of any basement property. Well equipped kitchen. Parking is just outside the house on the street (free). Very handy location to drive to downtown Vancouver.
This was a gem. Tucked away, quiet and so accusable to public transit. The rooms are sizeable, as is the living room /kitchen. The apt has a small patio area for morning coffee or an afternoon book read. There's plenty of airflow through the apt. Really a super yummy place to feel homey. Many many thanks to the hosts.
My wife and I enjoyed a fantastic four-day visit to Vancouver with one of our college-aged children, We chose Odette and Ron's spot in a delightful neighborhood instead of a bland downtown condo and could not have been more pleased by that decision. Their house is wonderful, we slept great, we were able to cook a few of our own meals in their well-stocked kitchen, and the whole set-up give our first time in the city a home-like feel. The house and neighborhood are beautiful, a local supermarket, restaurants, and coffee shops are a five-minute walk, parking was a breeze, and connecting to any other part of the city was very simple. We definitely plan to be back in Vancouver while our daughter is in school, and we we will make ever attempt to book this location again. Odette and Ron gave great advice about local sights-to-see and were perfect hosts. Absolutely 5 stars!
Very good stay. It is a very nice house with garden. It is about half an hour from the downtown by bus. It is about 10 minutes walk from the nearby shopping street, including many restaurants and supermarkets. the house is very bright in the rooms, and the living room has flowers. The kitchen was well equipped and coffee and tea bags were provided. Ice was provided in the fridge. The living room has a large sofa for many people to relax. Bath towels, shower gel, shampoo and conditioner, toilet paper, laundry detergent were conveniently provided in the toilet. There are two bedrooms in total, one with a queen bed attached and one with a set of bunk beds. All rooms are very clean and tidy. The landlords are very nice and kind, and the family has a very cute dog.
A lovely almost ground level basement suite with some vintage and antique touches. Mixed with modern pieces this gave an eclectic feel to the space, which was warm and comfortable.
The kitchen was why we rented and it didn’t disappoint. We cooked up a storm with all gadgets needed. Underfloor heating prevented any damp feeling that basements can have, and the addition of the gas fire made it cosy in the evenings. The bathroom was great, with a window for ventilation and plenty of hot water and loads of towels.
The bedrooms are comfortable, but the beds, while comfortable, squeaked; so if you’re a light sleeper do bring earplugs. The smaller bedroom has the furnace room next to it, meaning no closet space, but there are plenty of drawers and enough closet space in the main bedroom to cater to 3 adults.
It was a tad noisy at times, but the host lives upstairs and evenings were quiet. We appreciated the on street parking. I was concerned that there would be road noise but it wasn’t the case.
Our hosts were lovely people and helpful when we needed it.
There are a few steps down to the apartment, with a flagstone path along the house. Don’t wear heels! It is a lovely place to stay though - and spotlessly clean.
Thanks for a lovely time.
