Andrea’s place is stylish and beautiful. They are friendly and nice. It’s in the most wonderful neighborhood. It’s the first time spending time in Kitsilano and we fell in love with it. It’s only 20 min walk to the ocean. They were thoughtful, generous, responsive, kind hosts. We were given a bottle of lovely red wine and felt spoiled. And they had Anthropologie soap bars for us. Their internet was good and we had access to Netflix and Tv too! The walls are thin but hearing other people live doesn’t bother me since I grew up in a full house with lots of people so it felt familiar and Andrea would apologize about the noise but it honestly didn’t bother me at all. You could sometimes hear the housing pipes and heating or water heater hum or whir, but I got used to it and with ear plugs you can sleep through anything. They were nice to let us use their laundry even on days that weren’t assigned to us and they were flexible and understanding and communicated well. We had to do laundry regularly because we needed to wear masks daily and only have a 5 Day supply. We had a small incident using the Dawn ultra platinum advanced power dish soap that was next to sink to do dishes but it’s not their fault at all because I have used Dawn without gloves before and was fine. However this Dawn ultra platinum one is super potent and stung our hands and irritated our lungs. I stopped using it as soon as it burned my hands. It was less painful after I got super thick gloves but I decided to read about the product. Because it’s proctor and gamble and they don’t always label ingredients nor warnings on their products. I had to find out what’s in it via EWG website. I also read though the products safety data sheets and it recommended using gloves and having ventilation. But it bothers me that p and g didn’t put anything at all on their label. It does obliterate food in seconds like it promises but its also super harsh. We just simply got a new dish soap after using it twice since we were staying for a longer stay and stopped using the Dawn Ultra Platinum. I also texted Andrea to let her know. I learned a lesson from all of this is to read ingredients on things and be aware of what the ingredient is and if it’s not listed then maybe it’s not a good idea to use it until I find out what’s in it. Sorry for long review. But overall I give them 5 stars and they are nice hosts and patient with me in regards to explaining how BC recycling works when I asked. Hope you get to enjoy staying there too!
