I live in a one bedroom apt and have a living room area divided into two parts.
You would get the private bedroom. There is no internet, but there are so many restaurants, bars, shops in the area with internet and wifi connections. There is the library which has all connections free and it is four blocks away. The bus stop is half a block away. The area is quiet, secure and safe. There is a swimming pool in the backyard during the summer only. There happens to be a lot of art galleries and theatre close by. I prefer SHORTER TERM stays with me: ie : 2 or 3 days for a traveler type or student type only. No person on business please. You are welcome to text me: but please limit it a few texts ONLY. Thanks!

About the Area

Located around central Vancouver. The bus stop is half a block away and it takes you downtown in 10 minutes only. The Canada Line train is about a mile away, but you can take the express bus to the station. From there, you can either get to the airport or downtown.
As mentioned before, there is so much activity in my area.

    I had a wonderful time at Cindy's house. She is very friendly and kind. I felt like I was visiting my relative! It was very relaxing. I really enjoyed talking with Cindy. Besides it's located in a very good neighborhood. I recommend staying at Cindy's place. Thank you very much, Cindy. I hope to see you again.

    Cindy was always kind to me. She let me know about Canada, Vancouver, English. She taught me a lot of things. Even when I was finding a job, she told me some chances if there was job openings. Thanks to Cindy I could learn everything. It was definitely the wonderful choice.

    Cindy was quick with answering any questions I had beforehand and very welcoming when I got there. I had the bedroom wich gave some privacy and loved sharing stories with her when we had diner and breakfast together. She respects privacy so if you prefer not sharing meals, she’s ok with that too. I recommend staying with her if you want an affordable place very central.

    Cindy was a lovely host who was happy to suggest some places to see and what buses to take. Her apartment has an amazing view of Vancouver and she lives close to a number of restaurants and amenities on Granville Street.

    The stay with Cindy was excellent, she is a friendly and welcoming person. She taught me how to mobilize in the city. His advice was very valuable to take advantage of the little time we had. It also gave us a cozy chat and a good breakfast. It was definitely the best choice I ever made.

    Cindy is a very very helpful person. She makes my trip excellent. I cannot speak English very well, but she helped my English. And she took me to the museum. The wine was so good! The view from her apartment is also good! I could make good memories in Vancouver. If I go to Vancouver, I want to see her again.

    Your are most welcome! It would be good to see Kota again and this way he can continue to learn English, conversationally. All the best to Kota and might see you again.
