Reviews

• Eliz from Canada – 11 January 2025 (10/10)

  Loved the place! It was our 7th time visiting Vancouver. So we've stayed at a lot of places in the past and can compare.
  Absolutely loved the Smithe House. Everything at the room/apartment is very well thought out, you have everything you need (*even umbrellas for the rainy Vancouver!). The staff is extremely helpful and nice, they were always available if we needed any help or support. So definitely happy with the stay 10/10.
  
  What could be improved: Maybe have some more clear instructions for check in/out and cleaning

• Kadejaha from Canada – 30 March 2025 (9/10)

  Very cute layout. Nicely designed. I wished the kitchen had a few more essentials, the gym was too small and very bare bones, like that it was 24hours. Also missing a few essentials as well. Ie. Mats etc. I would recommend this place to friends and family.

  What could be improved: Could not figure out how to get local TV. Everything seemed to be streaming. Not that we watched a lot of TV anyway. Small inconvenience. Pretty expensive due to local events taking place at time of stay.
