I booked Nancy's place for my family (parents + brother) visiting from overseas.
I am a local and chose Nancy's place mainly for how close it is to my apartment.
In summary, Nancy's place was not a good fit for my family, but it was very reasonably equipped for the price.
I would definitely recommend Nancy's place to budget travellers who don't spend much time at the place, and especially during the summer.
I would not recommend Nancy's place to people who want to enjoy the place itself, or during the winter.
pros:
- very affordable
- good location in a quiet neighbourhood. very close to a sky train station + entertainment complex
- host was very responsive and accomodating
- clean new washroom
- washer/drier on site
cons:
- faulty and noisy heating system. it broke down multiple times (we stayed over the winter holidays)
- worn out and dirty furnitures. they are in noticeably worse conditions than in the photos
- incomplete/poorly completed "renovation" (mouldings, paint job, etc). also not very clean
- no opening windows
- no closets
