The room was clean, family was nice. A suggestion would be to put some railings down at the bottom as that last stair to get the sidewalk was very slippery and i fell. Other then that it was a great stay.

Street parking, room and beds were clean and comfortable - didn’t eat breakfast but used fridge downstairs to store leftover food. Host was friendly and available for anything we needed. Would stay again. One suggestion: having a full length mirror in room would be nice.

The Sunshine House was very nice in a very quiet neighborhood. The host was very nice as well. Our room was great with a big king sized bed. Our only issue was we were told there no breakfast served on Sundays because it’s their day off. This wasn’t mentioned to us until Sunday morning. Plus there was no adjustments in the price without a breakfast.

A nice little Bed and Breakfast located in a very convent location to Vancouver at a good price. The parking is great as well. The owner is super nice and friendly and asked us multiple times if we needed anything. She tried to make us as comfortable as possible which was very much appreciated. We did stay in the smaller room with three adults and I would recommend the larger room if available but it is manageable. We really enjoyed our stay and again it is super convent to access Vancouver. Vancouver is a beautiful city and this is the perfect place to stay outside the city!

Lisa provides a clean, comfy & convenient B&B for a visit to Vancouver. A healthy breakfast as well to set one up for a good day. I appreciated her allowing us to 'park' our luggage ahead of the check-in time, as we weren't driving a vehicle.

Relaxing trip in a beautiful neighborhood

This is a beautiful house in a charming neighborhood. The owner is easy to communicate and welcoming. This place has everything you need ready for your vacation. We stayed in the room with the private bathroom and room itself was pretty spacious. Bathroom is tiny but functional and meets the needs.

Simple but comfortable and great value. My wife has back trouble with uncomfortable beds, and the King bed in the first floor room met her needs. Host was attentive and provided good service. Charming neighborhood with small market, coffee and bakery about a block's walk away. Easy to park on the street. Easy to drive to UBC and Kitsilano and Point Grey neighborhoods.

Location is convenient enough for local transport into town. Unfortunately I found the room was small to accommodate 3 adults with luggage. One of the beds was broken but alternative arrangement was made for the 2nd night. Service was good, very friendly. Overall, good value for money
