Wurde von der Gastfamilie Super aufgenommen. Habe den Aufenthalt in der Gastfamilie sehr genossen. Zimmer völlig ausreichend. Sehr nette und Hilfsbereite Familie. Lage nicht weit von der Innenstadt, leicht mit dem Bus erreichbar. Ruhige Nachbarschaft. Kann die Gastfamilie nur weiterempfehlen.!

Maria and her son were a lovely guest family for my 2 month stay in Vancouver. They were incredibly nice and helpful with everything I needed. The dinners were lovely and I really enjoyed my time with them. I'd highly recommend this homestay

I had a wonderful stay at Maria`s home. Maria is very kind, amiable and helpful; she became a good friend. Her home is cosy, clean and perfect to feel at home. The location is very convenient, close to bus stops (including night bus from downtown) and shopping facilities. Highly recommended!
