I am very grateful to Monica and her family.
Monica supported me and helped me find my way around Vancouver, she taught me how to use public transportation and gave me very good recommendations for activities.
Monica was really very kind, I had a wonderful stay at her house.

I stayed at Monica and her family’s home for 10 days and they were such a sweet and kind hearted family! They were also understanding and friendly throughout the whole duration of stay. The room has all you need, including hangers, a drawer, mirror, etc.. Highly recommended if you’re looking for a home to stay in Vancouver!
Host reply
Hi Jane, we really enjoyed your company, we hope to see you in the near future. Regards, Monica
