Tl;dr: I’m a no frills kinda gal. A good night’s sleep and a hot shower are all I’m looking for in a place, and it just really didn’t deliver. The aesthetics were great for the soul, the place was truly well equipped, and the host was very helpful, but it didn’t meet my basic needs. If you’re a deep sleeper and don’t care for hot showers, then this place is for you.
Pros:
The place is adorable and super well stocked (tea/coffee, cookware, board games, spare linens, umbrellas).
Alan is incredibly responsive and helpful. We had a few hiccups and he was quick to assist.
Cons:
If you’re a light sleeper, I would seriously think twice. The bed is under a set of stairs and the main door is directly adjacent to the door to the building so there is a lot of noise that will wake you. I was woken every day.
Hot shower lovers also think twice. At max, it hit my lower threshold for okay. Even after letting it warm up. After a cold day in Whistler, it was especially a disappointment.
Neutral
The room is very bright. Normally great but the curtains don’t reach the tops of the windows and I had to buy an eye mask to sleep part way through the trip. Just something to keep in mind.
