My wife and I took in the Vancouver Folk Music Festival in July for the first time in years and our stay was relaxing and wonderfully memorable because of the hospitality of Sylvain and Alexis at Casa Om. The house is absolutely beautiful and the off street parking was a pleasant bonus. I want to add a story about our stay to demonstrate and kindness and generosity and helpfulness we experienced from Sylvain and Alexis. While driving back to the B&B after the Friday night concert, our car's warning light came on showing that the alternator had failed and our car's battery was no longer being charged. It was the weekend and we knew we would need to have the alternator replaced before our car "died." On Saturday morning with help from our hosts we started calling car repair shops to take care of this emergency. We weren't having much luck so I became resigned to thinking I'd have to pay "an arm and a leg" to get our car repaired that day. I'm on the telephone with a car dealer in downtown Vancouver and they have Saturday repair hours and I'm getting a quote of $395.00 for a new alternator. At the same time, Sylvain is on his cell phone finding another nearby shop that will sell us a replacement alternator for $110.00 with a $45.00 installation fee. Needless to say I was thrilled and we will able to drop the car off and catch a bus to the music festival and later in the day return to pick up the car. Sylvain literally saved us hundreds of dollars and he put my mind at ease so I could focus on enjoying the wonderful folk music festival. It's unlikely that we would have received that kind of assistance if we were staying in a hotel or most other B&B's. Within minutes of first meeting Sylvain and Alexis, we felt like family. Their breakfast offerings were superb. The room was quiet and the bed was amazing and very comfortable. And when they helped us with our car situation, they really did become family to us. We highly recommend this B&B.
