All in all, a great first airbnb experience for us. Host was nice and easy to communicate with via email. She met us with fresh croissants and OJ for the next morning when we arrived, and otherwise left us to our own devices.

The house is a wonderful little place, exactly as pictured and described here, with lots of charm, interesting furnishings, and tons of books. We spent 5 nights here with 4 adults and one happy toddler. Even the kid was well provided for, with a pack&play to sleep in, and lots of age-appropriate books and toys!

This house is in a quiet (if marginally dingy) neighborhood with easy access to 6/8 buses which take you straight downtown. An easy walk to Safeway, a longer jaunt will take you to all the hip places on Alberta street. It's also easy to find, and decently close to the airport.

One thing you can't tell from the description is the layout --- two bedrooms upstairs with queen(?) beds, a third downstairs in a finished basement with the two twin beds, a separate bathroom, and small playroom. Could easily sleep six without trouble.
