Shirley’s place is exactly like what i have imagined. The location is very close to bus 95—it gets you to SFU in 20 mins. There is a local bus loop nearby as well. If you are staying for a longer period of time, you can take advantage of the park which is literally 1 mins walk from Shirley’s place.
The room itself is really nice. Things are kept simple but classy. I enjoyed the mattress, the pillow and the duvet particularly. Shirley prepared some snacks which are super helpful.
Shirley is great at communicating with me. She’s considerate about my schedule (international flight etc) so she talked with the other guests to make sure that they are also mindful of my situation.
Overall, it’s a short but pleasant stay!
