Dyanne its a wonderful human being, caring, considerate, and astonishingly adept to service her guests. I would go back again every time. She is also attentive to give space and provides a tranquil environment.

Small town house with one bathroom for 4 to share. Guests have there own bedroom, but there is no other available places in the home for a guest to use.
The kitchen has good appliances and guests can prepare their own meals. The seating at the table is limited to a few people though, because the host works from home at the table.
Travel to SFU is about 20 min. bus and skytrain, as is downtown Port Moody. Downtown Vancouver is between 45 to 70 minutes depending on the time of day and how buses
are running. A bus stop is 5 minutes from the

What about my experience in this beautiful person that is Dyanne.
I had a wonderful time with Dyanne. She is a very kind person with a big heart always ready to help us when needed. We are very well at home and we feel at home. She helps us prepare our visits and advises us places to visit. Our cooking moments together will be missed as well as your good recipes. We had the privilege of going to Squamish with her on our last day and it was a good day to finish our trip. I can't wait to come back and see you in Vancouver, which is a beautiful city.
Merci pour tout Dyanne, j'ai passé un super moment avec toi, tu nous as fait vivre plein de choses et tu as rendu notre voyage fantastique à Kevin et moi. J'ai hâte de revenir te voir et je reviendrai tu peux en être en sûr. Vancouver me manque, cette ville est génial avec ces magnifiques paysages. Gros bisous Dyanne et à bientôt.November 2017

Dyanne is an easy-going host with warm hospitality. We both happen to be for green-living concept, and I enjoyed the gathering that Dyanne had hosted for the local Force of Nature chapter meeting. The room that I stayed is on the second floor, if you have heavy luggage, it might take you some efforts to get it up there. The room is clean and comfy. Through the window, I can see the landscape of the back yard and the tall trees behind. It is more quiet than what I expected.
Dyanne is also a kitty lover, Snow Ball likes to stick around people once getting familiar with. He is cute and adorable. The only thing that I was caught by surprise is the smell of the cigarette. Dyanne smokes occasionally, though she smoked in her own room, I can still smell it, maybe due to the interior air ventilation. Well, in the end, it does not affect me too much. I look forward to my second visit whenever I have another chance to be in the Port Moody area.
