Karen's place is certainly affordable given the fact that it is just a 10-15 minute ride to downtown Vancouver. The place is so clean, you'd definitely love your stay in their house because it has tropical vibes. The room and washroom have some plants hence it is really refreshing.
Karen as a host is very welcoming too with her guests. I was even a bit embarrassed at first as she helped me transfer my laundry from the washer to the dryer, I can see that she is really indeed accommodating.
I cannot wait to book her house again in the summer. I give this place a 10/10.
