Isabelle was really great. I have nothing to complain about this homestay and host. Room is exactly how pictures show, so it means that it has everything that you need. I also didn't experience any trouble with the bathroom. I didn't use the kitchen too much however when I need I didn't miss anything. And Isabelle is a very great host and person. She's very friendly! I hope to see her again soon

I stayed at Isabelle's house for a month. I had a good time. The location of the house is super convenient for public transport. and the neighborhood is quite. the room was clean and confortable and the dog sweet. She is adorable and now we have become friends. I recommend it to everyone who comes to Vancouver for the first time. and in addition the price is fantastic :)

It was super great experience to stay Isabelle's house.
Room is very spacious with bed, sofa, coffee table, drawer, desk and additional closet as well. It was very cozy and mattress was soft enough. She cared me a lot so I felt safe and her dog Perche is most adorable creature in the world. :-)
Many thanks to Isabelle!Host reply

Isabelle was a fantastic host. She made my first month in Vancouver such a great experience. She gave me tips and advice on what to see, where to eat and how the city works. We visited the art museum together.
Her house is warm and cosy. She gave me access to the kitchen and all facilities she has. The room is huge with a very comfortable single bed. It also has a mini living room, desk, wardrobe and an office chair.
Purchey (her chihuhua) was also a fantastic host giving me lots of cuddles and asking to play with her all the time.
I totally recommend staying with Isabelle. She is cool, reliable and gives you plenty of freedom to come and go as you want as well as looking after you, particularly if it's your first time in Vancouver.October 2016
thank you for everything!
see you again!July 2016
It was my first time using Homestay.com and I had a great time staying with Isabelle. She is really kind and generous. She is easygoing too. Her place is located in a convenient location. There's a bus stop very closed to the house and the bus takes you to the downtown. And 10 min walk to the Commercial Broadway sky train station. If I get any chance coming to Vancouver again in the future, I'd like to stay with Isabelle again :)

Isabelle is very nice, friendly and energetic. She is willing to help.
She is good at cooking. She make a variety of food.
Location is convenient for downtown. Skytrain station is near house. And going to downtown is only one ride on bus. There are grocery stores, parks, convenience stores near house.
There are cute dogs inside house. If you like dogs, you can walk and play outside with dogs.
Also you can enjoy Netflix and Wii in house.
I totally satisfied with this homestay. Especially Dinner Isabelle cook was delicious.
She picked me up to this home and my new place. She is very helpful. She is not picky, so you can enjoy homestay with Isabelle family easily.

It was a big pleasure to stay by Isabelle!
She's not complicated, is always in a good mood, and makes effort to cook different meals. The bedroom stays cool in the summertime and have enough storage place.
Her house is good located, close to the nice commercial drive and the sky train. With my bike I was everywhere in a quite short time.
You have to like dogs and you don't have to be complicated in the housekeeping.
The price is excellent for Vancouver when you consider that 3 meals are included.July 2015
