New, Modern, City Views near SFU
Overview
We have both shared and private living options! RATES: Our offering is superior to any others in Vancouver and our rates reflect this. We stand by this, as quality of life is of utmost importance when you are travelling abroad and away from family and friends. We embrace our homestays as family and ensure they feel comfortable with above average accommodation, well balanced meals, and warm, welcoming living environment. SHARED LIVING (room & bath rental only): 2 furnished rooms for rent on our upper floor with private washroom, and shared living space. Delicious meals provided (3 per day, plus desserts!) PRIVATE LIVING (1000SF 2-BED SUITE): 2 bedrooms in a fully renovated and furnished suite w/modern and high end finishes, kitchen w/stainless appliances & equipment for cooking and dining, bathroom, living, dining area, and private access. ABOUT THE HOST: We are a young couple, currently with no children, but a small and friendly fur baby, Pearl. We have been hosting students for 5 years and enjoy the company, cultures, and relationships we make and maintain even beyond the stay! We are active, working professionals, with flexible schedules. We have a very chill home environment where rules aren't necessary as long as we respect one another and keep things tidy (I do the major cleaning). We love cooking all kinds of cuisine, trying new foods and recipes, and DESSERT! NEIGHBORHOOD & AMENITIES: We live in an active, quiet and safe neighborhood on Capital Hill in North Burnaby with the top rated views in the entire lower mainland — watch the sunsets with a backdrop of downtown, the ocean, Vancouver Island, and the snow capped mountains.
