The house was very clean and she provided all the basics (like tea, sugar, etc) so we didn’t have to purchase a bunch of stuff. Loved the location. It is just around the corner from Commercial Drive, which has lots of restaurants and shopping. About a one mile walk to the public transportation. Loved the house and the backyard is lush and beautiful. Dorothy has a gazebo there and told us we were free to use it. I highly recommend this VRBO. There are stairs outside as well as a flight to ascend inside the house. ##### Jeff G. Stayed 4 nights in Sep 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### George F.

The house is 100 years old this year and is really cute with a luscious back yard which is really pretty to look at. The place was clean, no issues with cleanliness. The property is close to the city centre by car and has a lot of good restaurants nearby if you don’t want to go so far. We always found parking on the street where the house it. Overall, we recommend Dorothy’s cute upstairs loft area if you are visiting Vancouver. Thanks again! ##### George F. Stayed 4 nights in Sep 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Erika B.

Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jean G., Birmingham, UK Sep 19, 2018 #### Charming, cozy retreat. This little attic suite is beautifully finished and very comfortable. After a long day of seeing the sights it really felt like coming home. The location couldn’t be better in terms of food with dozens of restaurants within a few minutes’ walk and plenty of shops to pick up anything you might need for breakfast or snacks. Dorothy is an excellent host, friendly and helpful but respectful of privacy. The only caution minor I would offer is that if you’re using public transport you’ll have to factor in significant journey times. The bus service is frequent, convenient and reliable, but it’s over an hour to UBC and about 45 minutes to Stanley Park. We actually enjoyed the bus rides, and if you’re in a car or on bikes the journey times will be much less, but travellers with limited time and a full check list of must-sees should perhaps take note. We loved this place and would definitely stay again. ##### Jean G. Stayed 4 nights in Sep 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jeff S. Jul 23, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Nice find in Vancouver Dorothy's house is conveniently located just off of Commercial Drive, on a tree lined residential street. The upstairs one-bedroom space was well-appointed with lots a seating, a kitchen with everything you'd need to cook (but with all the nearby restaurant options, I'm not sure why you would) and, thankfully, an air conditioner and fans. The bed was a bit too soft for us, but that's a personal preference. We didn't have a car, and rode the Sky Train into downtown Vancouver each day. It was an easy 15 walk to the station down Commercial Drive or through the neighborhood streets to check out the beautiful homes and gardens. If we were too tired, we caught the bus at the station that stops a block from the house. Dorothy was a fantastic host, welcoming, friendly, and respectful of our privacy. Overall great experience. We would stay here again. ##### Jeff S.
