We loved this property. Beds were comfortable, living area was nice, and hosts were extremely helpful and very responsive. The pictures on the site were very accurate and it was even a bit larger than it appeared. Since it is in North Vancouver, there is the issue of getting into downtown, but we took Ubers each day and they were always available within less than 5 minutes. The little downtown area of North Vancouver was also nice and had many choices of restaurants within walking distance. We would definitely stay again if we were in the area.

Grand Boulevard Suite

This was a fantastic place to stay: clean, well equipped and very comfortable. Bed was so comfortable and so was the sofa-great place to stretch out and relax after a busy day. Quiet neighbourhood and quiet house. Close to local amenities and an easy run into the city. Justin and Kim are great hosts and were very responsive to queries. Good selection of info on local attractions was a bonus. Would definitely stay there again.

Vancouver holiday

We had been on the island for 5 days for a family wedding/vacation. We wanted to spend some time in the city of Vancouver as well in a central location. Downtown is busy and expensive so we decided to stay in North Vancouver. Our rental was located close to many amenities on a quiet street. The location was immaculate as well. Check-in was easy and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Family reunion

The property is conveniently located within walking distance of Lonsdale shopping. Quiet apartment, nicely decorated. One of the stove elements didn’t seem to work. The kitchen is well stocked and functional. Several of the plates had remnants of cheese on them; so I think the dishwasher heat might be insufficient. All of the other features of the apartment are very good. I would definitely stay there next August when I return to North Vancouver.

Perfect spot for exploring the city.

From our first contact, communications with Justin were excellent. The booking process was straightforward. The accommodation is comfortable, well equipped and is in a great location, a short walk from local restaurants and shops, and an easy drive from both central Vancouver and local rural attractions, e.g. Capilano and Grouse Mountain, or the Horseshoe Bay ferry. Perfect for all our needs. Much recommended - thank you!

North Vancouver

The location of this property was great. The neighbourhood was clean and very quiet. The apartment was nicely appointed but showing signs of wear and tear. * The walkway up to the unit needs to be one solid surface, very difficult to roll your luggage on slabs of concrete separated by sunken river rock. * This unit has no A/C and NO screens on the windows. Vancouver is getting warmer!!! A/C is a must especially since you really can't keep the windows open because there are no screens and you're on a lower level and anything could get in through the window. Supplying 4 fans in the unit does not help, it just circulates warm air. *No window in bathroom. Fan makes noise, so makes you think its working but has no suction power, therefore all the heat and steam goes into the already warm unit. *Could provide better sheets and comforters, microfiber is cheap and makes you sweat even more. * Towels were worn and torn * Front door curtain could be washed. * No useable frying pans. They are all scratched, leaching harmful chemicals into your food. * Shower curtain rod is badly rusted making it hard to pull curtain open or closed. It needs to be replaced or covered with plastic rod protector. * Heating duct registers were full of dust and debris and spider webs. Looked like they were never cleaned. * Info binder needs to be updated. It was written in 2014 ! * Motion lights had no bulbs in them. Very hard to see where you're going at night.
