The apartment is very cute and offers everything one needs for a long-term stay. Jessie and Ben are very nice, helpful, and responsive people.
Positive:
- very nice and safe neighborhood (looks like in a movie)
- shopping is just 10 min away on foot
- good bus connection to downtown and UBC
- The apartment is freshly renovated and very clean
- The kitchen is well equipped for cooking (free maple syrup available)
- well-isolated windows and floor heating (it is warm inside even when it is freezing outside)
- cozy blankets
- eco-friendly products (soap, etc.)
Negative:
- the house itself is not very soundproof, so you will be able to hear noises from above during the day. (However, during the night it was always quiet)

Neutral points (to be aware of):
- The bed comes with a hard mattress
- Currently, the apartment does not have a chair or table (but Jessie said that a desk could be added to the bedroom if needed)
- Laundry is shared with the host and can be used on request
