Stayed at a B&B managed by a Chinese host. Originally booked a hostel, but due to a staff error, it was already fully booked and we couldn’t check in. The team quickly arranged a transfer to another nearby B&B just a 10-minute drive away—no hassle at all. The alternative place was clean, well-maintained, and very comfortable. While the initial mix-up was a bit stressful, the staff handled it professionally and with great care. Their quick response and willingness to help made a big difference. Overall, despite the hiccup, the experience was positive, especially considering the value and friendly service. Definitely worth recommending.

The location is excellent—just a short walk from downtown Vancouver and very convenient for public transit. The only downside is that the hosts only speak Chinese, so guests who don’t understand Mandarin will need to rely on a translation app. That said, it’s a minor hurdle considering how well-maintained the villa is, the comfortable layout, and the peaceful neighborhood. Everything else was spot-on: clean, quiet, and great value for money. Would definitely stay here again if visiting Vancouver.

Staying at the Vancouver UBC 48th Villa was a fantastic experience. The location is perfect—just a short walk to public transit, making it super easy to get downtown or explore other parts of the city. The villa itself is clean, well-maintained, and offers a peaceful retreat after a busy day. With everything you need right on site, it's ideal for both short stays and longer visits. Great value, great vibe, and highly recommend for travelers looking for convenience and comfort in a quiet neighborhood.

Staying at Rambla in Solarino House was an absolute delight. Located just two blocks from Sydney Road, the property is perfectly positioned in the heart of bustling Brunswick—within walking distance to great cafes, restaurants, and public transit. We booked a spacious one-bedroom apartment with a private balcony and outdoor furniture, which made mornings and evenings so relaxing. The unit was bright and airy, with plenty of natural light and good blackout blinds for restful sleep. The kitchenette was well-equipped with everything we needed—pots, pans, cutlery, and cookware—making it easy to prepare meals on-site. The only minor hiccup was the digital access system, which took a few tries to figure out initially, but once we got the hang of it, it worked fine. Overall, this place offers excellent value, comfort, and convenience. I’d highly recommend it to anyone visiting Vancouver who wants a home-like stay in a vibrant neighborhood.

It's truly disappointing to see a property with heritage status allowed to deteriorate so badly. There are multiple holes in the roof, the yard and garden are completely neglected, and the surrounding area shows no signs of maintenance. Water pressure is weak, and the temperature control is inconsistent—during winter, the heating isn’t sufficient, making it necessary to wear a jacket just to stay warm. It’s clear the owners don’t care much about the property, let alone guest comfort. Yet they’re still happy to take your money. Avoid this place—your money would be better spent elsewhere. The condition is only going to get worse, and more complaints will follow. Eventually, the City of Vancouver may be forced to shut it down, which it absolutely should. This isn’t a proper B&B anymore—it’s a warning sign.

I was truly impressed with my stay at The Sunshine House—everything exceeded my expectations. From the warm and welcoming staff to the spotless, well-maintained rooms, it’s clear that attention to detail matters here. The bed was incredibly comfortable, and the soundproofing made for a peaceful night’s sleep. What stood out most was the complimentary parking—huge plus when you're exploring Vancouver by car. The location is perfect: close to public transit, surrounded by great restaurants and cafes, and just a short walk from downtown attractions. I’ve stayed at many hotels before, but this one stands out for its genuine hospitality and value. I’d highly recommend it to anyone visiting Vancouver—this is definitely my top pick for future trips.

Absolutely stunning experience at Cambie Lodge! Nestled in a quiet, green area yet just a short transit ride from downtown Vancouver, the location is perfect for both relaxation and easy access to city attractions. The room was spotless, cozy, and beautifully designed—comfortable bed, great lighting, and thoughtful touches everywhere. Breakfast was exceptional: fresh, locally sourced, and served with a warm smile. Staff were attentive without being intrusive, making the stay feel personal and welcoming. It’s rare to find such quality combined with affordability. I’d highly recommend this gem to anyone visiting Vancouver—whether traveling solo, as a couple, or with family.

I chose this hotel specifically to catch an early morning flight, and it turned out to be a perfect choice. The location is incredibly convenient—just a short ride to the airport, and the free shuttle service made everything so stress-free. From check-in to checkout, the staff were friendly and efficient. The room was spotless, well-maintained, and very comfortable—exactly what you'd expect from a reliable brand.

Out of all the places I stayed during my trip—including a few solid hotels—this one truly stood out as the absolute best. The room was incredibly cozy and thoughtfully designed, making it feel like a warm, welcoming home away from home. The bathroom was spotless, and the linens were fresh and high-quality, which made a big difference in comfort. The hosts were incredibly kind, attentive, and went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect. They even shared local tips that made our stay so much more enjoyable. And then there’s the cat—adorable beyond words! He stole my heart the moment I saw him, and I couldn’t stop smiling every time he wandered by. I genuinely fell in love with him. I’ll definitely be returning, and I’d highly recommend this place to anyone visiting Vancouver.

I booked this property in early April, canceled within the full refund window, and was still charged immediately—despite the booking page clearly stating refunds typically take 7–12 days. It’s been three months now, and my refund hasn’t arrived. I’ve reached out to customer service multiple times, but responses are minimal, inconsistent, and often feel like excuses rather than real solutions. The lack of transparency and follow-up is frustrating. I wouldn’t recommend booking here—there are far better options in Vancouver with more reliable service and honest policies.
