Upal from United States – 8 May 2023 (10/10)
The best part of Crystal's place is Crystal herself – she is the best, most caring host ever. She showed genuine interest in ensuring we have a great time in Vancouver. Gave us great suggestions, arranged discount coupons, offered help to reserve a nice restaurant for dining, and tried to accommodate us in every way she can. The room was spacious and impeccably clean. We stayed at Vivaldy, which had a private balcony with a superb view of the city. I liked the bathroom most – it is so fancy and well-equipped. Crystal welcomed us with her homemade cookies (a special kind – haven't had those before) which almost saved our lives as we has a very long journey and were practically starving. We did not get a chance to taste her very famous breakfast because we had some other plans, however, I did try her berry yogurt which was very tasty. Overall, we couldn't have expected a better BnB experience.
What could be improved: What's not to like? 🙂Mantreh from United States – 8 March 2025 (10/10)
Crystal is a very kind, gracious host with amazing cooking skills.
Singhal from India – 6 January 2025 (10/10)
We had a great stay! You feel at home, and Crystal is extremely helpful and warm. Breakfast is exceptional.
What could be improved: Nothing muchGeoffrey from Canada – 13 December 2024 (10/10)
Our only problem was that we could only stay for a short time. Would like to have stayed longer.
Ted from United States – 11 December 2024 (10/10)
Breakfast was fantastic. Hosts were very friendly and accommodating. North Vancouver is a great location if you want to look at Vancouver and not be in Vancouver. Plenty of outdoor activities within a short distance. A short drive to the North Shore and plenty of parking options to ride the sea bus to downtown Vancouver and then take the sky train to other Vancouver sites is best option to avoid the frustration of dealing with downtown traffic, the unpredictable Lions Bridge crossing, and finding downtown parking.
What could be improved: The high price for the stay. This was not Cystal's fault, just due to the "Taylor Swift" effect. However, the price for a comparable room in a downtown Vancouver hotel would have been about the same without breakfast and friendly hosts.Emilie from United States – 2 October 2024 (10/10)
Crystal is so warm and knowledgeable about the area. I felt like I was saying goodbye to a friend when we left. Bed was SO comfortable! Quiet neighborhood but close to all the best hiking spots we were interested in.
Michelle from United States – 9 September 2024 (10/10)
It’s in a safe, quiet neighborhood away from the hustle and bustle of downtown but close to the highways and easy to get around. The gardens are beautiful and the room is very nice. Well appointed and the whole place is very welcoming. The hosts are lovely and go out of their way to make it a great place to stay. The food is generous and great. We hope to return soon.
What could be improved: Nothing, it was just perfect for our stay.Cheryl from United States – 28 May 2024 (10/10)

Geoffrey from Canada – 30 March 2024 (10/10)
The breakfasts gave us everything we wanted.
What could be improved: Met all our requirements. Will remain our favorite B&B.Carolyn from United States – 11 November 2023 (10/10)
The breakfast was amazing. We don't normally do bed and breakfasts so it was a little intimidating. But while enjoying Crystal's amazing and healthy breakfast we made new friends. We cannot wait to come back.
