We enjoyed our stay at The Sunshine House. Mrs. Joy was very sweet and accommodating. She allowed us to check in a few hours early and stay an extra hour after checkout. She stored our luggage until our cruise boarding time. The bed was very comfortable.

The home and family are nice: accommodating, clean, comfortable. The neighborhood is lovely: safe, charming ( has 2 great bakeries and an exceptional grocery story). Transportation is easily walking distance. However, personally, I realized that I don't like bed and breakfast.

Homey and convenient
My stay was fine, this accommodation is very much a room within a family home which is in a fair condition. For the price, the proximity to UBC or downtown Vancouver is good. It is not a quiet house but I brought earplugs and a portable sound machine and was able to sleep. The king sized bed was comfortable but large for the room, pushed up against a wall and bruised me each time I walked past it. Linens were nice. Breakfast was offered (even on Sunday) but I did not have the time. Lisa seems a caring host. A general update and refresh of walls, furnishings and products could make this a more valuable property but as a budget option it does the job.

A nice little Bed and Breakfast located in a very convent location to Vancouver at a good price. The parking is great as well. The owner is super nice and friendly and asked us multiple times if we needed anything. She tried to make us as comfortable as possible which was very much appreciated. We did stay in the smaller room with three adults and I would recommend the larger room if available but it is manageable. We really enjoyed our stay and again it is super convent to access Vancouver. Vancouver is a beautiful city and this is the perfect place to stay outside the city!

A very pretty, quiet neighbourhood. Basics are all there. Simple breakfast of eggs, toast, tomatoes, yogurt & apples. With as much coffee or tea as we wanted! No breakfast on Sunday was a bit of a surprise.

Simple but comfortable and great value. My wife has back trouble with uncomfortable beds, and the King bed in the first floor room met her needs. Host was attentive and provided good service. Charming neighborhood with small market, coffee and bakery about a block's walk away. Easy to park on the street. Easy to drive to UBC and Kitsilano and Point Grey neighborhoods.

Not much to like about this place. Terrible feline odor and cat wandered at night scratching door. Had to get Lysol spray to neutralize the smell and kill any germs. Distances to bus stop are exaggerated. If you enjoy the smell of chicken feet boiling all day you will love this place. Breakfast according to Expedia listing was nice but in reality pitiful.

This a traveller's hostel kinda place, not so well kept or managed. The room was cold. The milk at breakfast on the first day was sour. The grapes were old and going brown. I would not recommend this place, especially for the price point.
