All reviews pretty much indicate what to expect - very clean and well thought out, has all you need, attentive but not intrusive host, and fabulous location. I walked everywhere - Granville market only 30 mins away, and some great local neighbourhoods to explore. Only downsides for me were the softness of the beds (not great if you have a bad lower back), the fairly noisy fridge, and being able to hear active kids (?) from upstairs late at night - probably more a summer holiday thing. After the first night's coma-sleep, remaining ones werent great. Good sleeps are my biggest concern usually, and so a big influence on my ratings. Having said that, if you are a sound sleeper and like a soft bed, it's a perfect short-term stay!
