comfortable, close to amenities, good place for two children

The interior is well supplied, clean and comfortable. It has everything I would want at home except a microwave oven (for reheating left over takeaway from the Indian restaurant on Nanaimo St!). The owners are friendly and readily available. There is a good view of Grouse Mountain out the back. It is about 500m from the local shopping district, which contains a large supermarket, some restaurants, at least one chemist and a Beeline bus stop for fast access to the CBD. Less than 1km in the opposite direction is a large park for exercising dogs and children. My wife, two children and I found it ideal for our requirements and would happily recommend it.

Gorgeous

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!

Chez Odette et Ron

Très grand espace pour faire à manger avec tout ce qu’il faut. Les hôtes sont très gentils et Odette parle même français. 1 grande chambre avec beaucoup de rangement, et une autre avec un bureau. Tout était très bien mets les matelas sont vraiment dû pour être changés. Une chose qui a beaucoup agacé les fumeurs dans notre groupe C’est d’être obligé d’aller fumer dans la rue. On avait pourtant un espace extérieur derrière. Et même si les fumeurs sont très respectueux des lieux et ne laissent jamais traîner leur mégots, ça leur était défendu.

Beautiful place in Vancouver

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!

Great Stay in Vancouver

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!

Vancouver stay - June 15-19

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!

Another excellent visit to a home from home

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.

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

A stay that exceeded all expectations

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.

Lovely area, great space

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.

Great location, welcoming hosts, comfortable 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.

Nice basement property

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.
