Fabulous!
Amazing location and many comforts. Beds and bedding were wonderful. Bread, milk, coffee, butter and juice for the first few days was a lifesaver. Very responsive to leaking toilet, and problems with penthouse gas fireplace.

The property was well maintained and the owner communicated effectively. Nice welcome touch with a loaf of bread, milk and orange juice. Somehow I misinterpreted Two bedroom suite as two bathrooms - my bad! It worked out alright for my mom and husband. There was a construction going on nearby but they were done early enough, didn't bother our dinner hours at home. Overall, nice stay.

The unit we stayed at at Alma Manor could not have been more comfortable or more pleasant. A short walk to the beach, a short walk (1 block) to a street with cafés and restaurants and a very good bus route. The owner was extremely accommodating and answered any questions we had promptly. I will recommend Alma Manor to any friends traveling to Vancouver and have already done so.

It was quite a treat to stay here. We loved the easy access to transportation to get wherever we wanted. It's a nice walk to the beach and there are ample grocery options nearby. We used bikes, transit and feet to get around and absolutely loved Vancouver. Our downstairs Irish neighbors were a bit noisy but otherwise it was a quite neighborhood.

Enjoyable stay
Alma Suites were very clean. The entrance spray smell was not to my taste but that was not important. The seating in the entrance and outside was lovely to sit in. The property is on a pretty road, with on street parking and close to a convenient bus route. Also walking distance to shops, cafes, restaurants etc. And a beach. Plenty of hot water fir the shower and bath. Communication with the owner was excellent. The studio flat had everything we needed except personally, we would have liked curtains as well as blinds as the early morning sun in June woke us up. A fan was provided but only one window opened for fresh air. As the studio was on the ground floor, maybe that is for security. Overall, we stayed 2 weeks and thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

It was so thoughtful of the hosts to leave orange juice, milk and bread in the fridge as a welcome! The only thing we didn’t love was the bed - not entirely comfortable, especially the pillows were the kind with very little give, unfortunately. This wouldn’t stop me from booking again, though. The place was beautiful, clean, a reasonable price and the host was very thoughtful and easy to communicate with. Thank you so much for a wonderful stay!

So much better than a hotel -- great bed, great bathroom, very nice kitchen, great sitting area. Whole unit is updated despite being in an historic building. Lots of light coming in from big windows. Only negative was traffic noise, but it settled down around 11 p.m. and the mornings were quiet. Stay here and you don't need a car -- Vancouver's clean, efficient buses go to all directions from right outside the unit. You can be whisked right into downtown in about 10 minutes. Not the best unit for people who have trouble with stairs, as you climb up to the front door and then once inside, up to the unit. .

We loved our stay at Alma Beach Suites! The location in the Kitsilano neighborhood is exceptional, charming, and beautiful with easy walking access to the beach (we took nightly walks), cafes, bakeries, restaurants, Whole Foods, a park, tennis courts, buses, etc. It felt like we were living in Vancouver. We used buses or taxis to reach downtown, Stanley Park, UBC, Gastown, Capilano Suspension Bridge, etc. We stayed in the one bedroom English Bay Suite, the kitchen was fully stocked with cooking supplies, and we received a sweet welcome basket with delicious bread, milk and more. Manfred was so helpful in emailing relevant information and sightseeing recommendations in Vancouver, too. We will definitely return to this special place.

Great house in a beaut, accessible neighbourhood
A very pleasant staying in a nice classic Vancouver house, located in a lovely convenient neighbourhood. Great kitchen, comfy beds, great outside deck. Transport to downtown literally 2 min walk. Good supermarket less than 10 min walk. Liquour outlet with good range 2 min walk. We were really able to experience Vancouver at its best, and the house left a great impression! Wouldn't stay anywhere else in Vancouver.
