Tamara is a great host! The room is more spacious than it appears on picture. There is a small lobby at the entrance for visitors where there is a small fridge, a small table and two chairs. Very accommodating if you bring back food to the room. There is also a microwave and a kettle to make tea. The room is very private, we have no impression of disturbing the inhabitants of the house, the entrance opens on the lobby which gives direct access to the room without passing through other rooms. The bathroom is shared, but never did we felt disturbed or that we have disturbed anyone, everything is tidy and fit for the visitors. The neighborhood is very quiet and secure about 20 min away of downtown. There are two buses that go directly to the city that, the #7 which is 5 minutes walk or the #20 which is on commercial drive, 12 minutes walk. Commercial Dr. like the name suggest offer a lot of restaurant and other businesses for your accommodation.
