    There is no "free parking", only street parking. No coffee or sugar, only tea bags. The place was overhead.

    Very clean, decent price

    Gaps under the doors were disruptive to privacy. There was little natural light in the room. The location wasn't ideal for walking around and seeing things. However, there is a bus stop nearby, and it's of course no problem by car.

    Very large room with a TV including Netflix, etc. The washing machines were very useful and free of charge. A Freshslice was just a 10-minute walk away, which was very convenient for us.

    No personal interaction with staff or other guests (staff was responsive on WhatsApp) bit of a weird smell in the rooms (but not too bad) not very welcoming, but ok for a few nights for arriving or before leaving. Location did not match description in booking.com (the actual location got sent via WhatsApp)

    Cheap, short walk to sky train. You can lock the bath rooms (just need to understand the locking mechanism). Bathrooms were clean.

    To be honest, nothing. Maybe the sounds from other guests, but it wasn't bad. Everyone was respectful.

    The staff was very attentive, and the room was big and clean. I had trouble entering the house, but they answered my questions quickly. The neighborhood was quiet and felt safe. The house was lovely as well. The bed was comfortable, and they turned up the heat at night.

    Shared cooking facilities are quite limited, but each bedroom has a fridge and kettle.

    Check-in instructions were provided in advance and check-in was simple. The hosts were offsite but were available via phone or WhatsApp and were very quick to respond. The house was nice and warm and very clean. The bedroom was clean and spacious, and the bed was very comfortable. The location is nice and quiet, and close to Kerrisdale and Oakridge. There is a bus stop very close by to go downtown, or you can walk 500m to Oakridge - 41st Avenue Subway Station to get the subway/Skytrain to or from downtown or Vancouver International Airport.

    As all the rooms are packed with zero ventilation the rooms kind of sting. Only the kitchenette has an open window

    I requested an attached bathroom along with my room and they provided me that. Grateful for that!! couple of rooms in the house and the common area was at the ground level along with a shared kitchenette.The location was good too. Open parking alongside the road.

    Okay, but not what is shown in the pictures.

    The house we stayed in was not the house in the pictures. We wanted to stay somewhere close to the SkyTrain, which was absolutely not the case (location is not correct). The 'kitchen' is hardly a kitchen. There are very few kitchen tools and appliances, so you can not really cook there, just heat things. The walls are very thin. You can hear the full conversation of the people next door. The garbage can in the kitchen is too small. Even though they empty it every day, trash was piling up every day. This could be a great guesthouse, but the house definitely needs some work.

    Very comfortable bed an spacious room. There are plenty washrooms in the house for all the guests. There is a washer and dryer free to use. Check in was easy and the host is very responsive. There is a hairdryer in the downstairs bathroom for everyone to use. The shared spaces are clean enough (not spotless, but good enough).

    My room was in the basement with no real window to open which meant it had a stale smell at end of evening when I returned. Also it’s not where it shows in the map. It’s about 5km further

    Big and spacious, nice neighbourhood, had cinema, pub, shops restaurants near by

    Walls are very thin, conversations in adjoining rooms were quite audible. It did seem there were permanent residents in the house.

    Good sized room and and plenty of bathrooms available. Location was in a pleasant and quiet residential neighbourhood. Bus service and supermarket within a 10 min walk.

    The room was a little smelly (basement room) and the house had a distinctive damp smell. We can hear other neighbours (every single word) but this didn’t disturb our stay.

    We like the area very much, nice neighbourhood with close supermarkets and easily connected to city centre via public transportation. Nice, quiet and safe. Laundry facilities and outdoor area. Kitchen facilities simple and contain everything that is needed.
