This was my first trip to Vancouver and it was made extra special and comfortable by staying with Helen and Gypsy. Her home is charming and warm and she really puts in the effort to make her guest feel welcome. The bed is extremely comfortable and the private bath was nice and had everything I needed. She supplied plenty of pamphlets and information about the city and help to plan my day with a bus route and schedule and even gave me a ride when I was going her way. She made wonderful fresh fruit, yogurt and toast for breakfast and unlimited good coffee and tea. If i am ever in Vancouver again I will definitely stay with her.
