We enjoyed our stay here and would book again at this location if we were to stay in Vancouver. It was certainly a home away from home and was close to public transportation for exploring the city and its attractions.

This was a great place. They had a kitchen and dining area For guests to use, the living room had a nice couch and tv. The bedrooms (all upstairs) were nice and clean. The temperature was perfect and the bedding was so nice. The entry process was smooth, as we arrived late at night. I felt very safe. The owners made a nice list of things to do, where bus stops were, and gave nice maps. I would stay here again!

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.

This multi-bedroom shared apartment in South Granville is good value for money within easy taxi distance to the YVR Vancouver airport. The staff were efficient and helpful, the room was clean and bed solid, and the hot shower was nice after our long journey. Walking distance to many food options on South Granville.

Overall comments

Overall service is excellent. It's very clean and tidy. The host is very friendly. You could have food and groceries nearby. The Skytrain station is only 20 min away. It costs me only CAD20ish if taking Uber to the airport. If going to Richmond, it's only CAD11ish by Uber. However, the room is a bit small for two persons. The air-con is noisy at night. The noise insulation for walls is insufficient. You could clearly hear someone going to the bathroom, walking in the corridor, opening/closing door and even packing baggages.

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!
