Yvette was a great host, communicated well in advance of what to expect on arrival and how the codes work for getting in an out of the house. She even gave us a quieter room downstairs when we arrived so that we'd get better sleep the first couple of nights! The location is a short walk from Hastings which has lots of nice restaurants and coffee places, and there public transport connections that go right through downtown and out to UBC. The bus into the centre takes about 40 mins. We were visiting family close to Yvette's house so for us it was ideal! Both rooms we used were clean and comfortable, but the room upstairs (which I think is the one for this listing) had a bit of noise from the traffic outside.
