Loved the comfort of my room! Still dreaming about the comfy bed and high thread count sheets especially. The fireplace and bathtub were great bonuses. They left tons of coffee pods (compostable!) and creamers in my room which I really appreciated. Also let me do early check-in and later check-out. Cute walkable neighborhood away from downtown (but easy to get downtown via Uber or bus/train).
My only suggestion is to put a dimmer in the bathroom! It's such a cozy & romantic room overall, but the only lighting option in the bathroom was super bright overhead lighting, eek. Also access to a bowl / plate and flatware would be nice, as I had to get takeaway meals a few evenings.

This place is a real gem - cosy and homely, stylish but comfortable. A real home from home.
We didn't see the owner/manager, but had no problems.

A home away from home. Lovely finishes. Comfy bed. Couldn’t fault it.
Nothing, however the bus through the east side into Vancouver city can be quite sad and confronting due the fentanyl issues in that area.

The room was very comfortable. Everything worked and there were several special treats. We enjoyed the quietness of the neighborhood and the convenience of several good restaurants only 2 blocks away: Uprising Bakery, Sushi, Bombay and Du Soleil breakfast.

Wonderful house in a perfect spot. Short stroll to Commercial Drive which is full of fabulous places to eat and drink. Not far from the Subway to take you Downtown. And bring you 'home' to your little piece of Vancouver paradise. 'Molly's Room' was beautifully set up. Big comfy bed and pillows. Even Netflix. Took our breath away when we first opened the door. And with a bathroom, complete with chandelier, endless hot water, and gorgeous feature tiles. Watched the sun set from the front balcony.
Great value. Do yourselves a favour.
Liked everything. And we rarely write reviews.

Great location- not in center city, but close enough to get there quickly. Quiet. Close to lots of restaurants and shopping.
HVAC was a little finnicky. That's it, really.

The location is great, close to a lot of shops.
This is just an improvement to what is already good: more cream for coffee and tea please. We know we can ask for it but don't want to disturb the host for such a small request.

Owners were very accommodating and check in with us through out our stay to make sure we were comfortable. Home was spotless, It is a beautifully restored heritage home. Easy walking to many eateries and vintage shops. Enjoyed the porches for morning coffee and pastries ( bought at nearby shop)

The owner was extremely helpful and friendly from the very moment we booked. She answered all our practical questions promptly by mail, on site made room for the bikes we rented in their private shed so these would be safe, gave us advice about our visit and made us feel truly at home. Everything was super clean, fully equipped and cozy. The house itself is a little gem, two steps away from "The Drive". Public transport and bike lanes nearby. The lovely garden with sitting area are an amazing spot to enjoy a drink or a meal outside.
Having to catch our flight back. We'd have loved to stay longer.

Great neighborhood and very close to the people we were visiting.
Lots of stairs to even get to the front door. Not recommended for people with impaired mobility.

The Ivy has been renovated to a high standard. We were in what I think is the smallest room, Molly, but it was still more than big enough for our 3 night stay. Lovely towels and bathrobes. Great shower. Heating and air con depending on time of year. Nice space to sit out on at the front .
We already had restaurant reservations but there is a variety of options within easy walking distance.
Magrit was very friendly when we met her and wanted to make sure we had everything we needed.
There wasn't anything not to like

fabulous place to stay. The property is lovely and the staff were very helpful.Location was perfect.There is a great coffee place five minutes away ..and then a lovely walk after. There are also many dinner options. We actually had a rental car but ubered so easily to and from downtown for dinner. We stayed in the Retreat which was lovely. We are at a spot in Victoria now and I miss that bathroom already!!
The apt is under the house and somewhat dark…but not enough to not stay there..

Nothing. It was perfect.

Amazing location - you are steps away from every type of food you could want. East access to downtown and sightseeing using the metro or city bike rentals are nearby. A quiet, clean, and relaxing place to unwind after a busy day! We will for sure come back.
everything was amazing - the only improvement would be that the light on the HVAC system is really bright when you’re trying to seller - would be great if there were a way to turn off the screen or a cover on it for sleep :)

The owners are lovely and very helpful and the location is fantastic with easy access to shops, restaurants, public transport, live theatre and art galleries. The quality of the furnishings in the room are excellent. Environmental credentials are good with composting provided. A range of different milks are available in the small fridge and a great selection of teas and coffees. Bathroom products are also good quality. I would definitely stay there again.

The room was lovely and had everything I needed to make my short stay comfortable. The electric fireplace is a charming feature and the heated bathroom floor was a treat. The location was very convenient for my visit and so was the self check-in and self checkout.

First time in a guests house and it was great!
Lovely atmosphere, great room, delicate nice design, and exactly what's expected from a suburb Vancouver neighborhood.
The most comfortable bed I had during my trips so far!
The only problematic thing is the line bus (20 I think) which wasn't that frequently good to the neighborhood.

Stayed in the IVY room (king). The room was spacious but cozy. Loved the fireplace! Bed linens were so soft &
Exceptional quality. We were welcomed with a lovely Okanagan wine & glasses. The coffee was terrific & fresh cream pods in refrigerator was fantastic. Tea selection very nice as were the honey packets. The outdoor sitting areas were lovely & we thoroughly enjoyed them. Terrific restaurants, food markets and nearby small shops were fantastic. The owner (Janet) was incredibly hospitable & so helpful. This place is a GEM & we’ll definitely be back again. Would be perfect stay for a special occasion!

The property was immaculately clean and felt very homely. Although the house was a period property, the room had been modernised to a high standard. The hosts were lovely and extremely helpful.

We felt at home, it's a room that has all necessary for a couple to live in, for a long time. Kitchen was fully equipped. / bed was comfortable. / bath as well as a shower - you can chose what you fell like / table to work on or eat. really great
lights are too dim.
as the house is very old and renovated, when entering the building there is a bad smell. don't know if that could be fixed.
It's our first time in Vancouver, so can't recommend on the location. it's a nice neighborhood

beautiful property in a very charming and quiet neighborhood, super clean, very convenient location, close to the main bike path. lots of nice restaurants around the neighborhood. coffee machine in the room.
very small room, too many pillows (6 or 7), it’s nice for decorations for whole house, but not practical for guests only staying in one room. there are no space for personal stuff.
