3 day visit to Vancouver

4.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed Aug 4, 2015
this B and B is in a lovely quite area of Vancouver West. Our hostes, Joanne was very friendly and helpfulThe accomodation was modern and clean. We had the room with the seperate bathroom in a hallway but we did not find this problem. The breakfast was well presented and delicious although the promised yogurt was never forthcoming. Tea, coffee, soft drinks were available from the kitchen as well as some sweet snacks.
There is a cat in residence and on 3 occasions during the night I had to get up to let it out of the house. Also the room was very hot at night but it was impossible to have the air conditioner on as it was very llist
Overall a very nice stay.

As a first time user of B&B style accomodation I was somewhat hesitant. However from the moment I was welcomed by Joanne to the last gooodbye I felt comfortable and 'at home'. The accomodation was beautiful in a safe and leafy neighbourhood. Shared areas were well equipped with a lush garden for relaxing and some great personal touches such as delicious and nutritious breakfasts. Public transport was nearby and readily accessible. Joanne is helpful, knowledgeable about Vancouver and a lovely lady as well. The House on Dunbar has set a high standard for my initiation into the world of the B&B.

More than a B&B, we felt like we were at a friends home. The common area was spacious and the backyard garden was very comfortable. We relaxed to watch some of the FIFA games on the large TV and couches. Breakfasts were hearty and tasty.

We could not have been happier with our stay at the House on Dunbar. My husband and I found the transit just terrific, thanks to Joanne's excellent helpful tips. What a hostess! Her breakfasts were fabulous and the HOD is extremely well organized. Thank you for making our trip perfect!

I visited Vancouver for a conference at UBC, and the House on Dunbar B&B ended up being PERFECT. Joanne is fabulous! She was helpful and attentive, cooks wonderfully, and went above and beyond to make sure that my trip was comfortable and relaxing. I'll absolutely be staying here again next time I have a reason to be in Vancouver!

Thanks Joanne!!
