About the host
Hosted by Susana
Original BC girl! I was born in Princeton, grew up in Kamloops and made Vancouver my home nearly 25 years ago. I really enjoy being a host and offering guests a beautiful space to stay in while visiting our diverse city and landscape. I'm a professional Interior Designer so for me, evoking emotion and creating experiences through the built environment are one of the things I'm super passionate about. Being able to extend that sentiment through my home, to my guests, is really special for me.
What you'll notice when you arrive...
I always like leave a few special touches like accent lighting prior to arrival, a bottle of wine, snacks, and fresh cut flowers whenever possible :)

Why they chose this property
A culturally rich and authentic neighborhood, Commercial Drive - also known as The Drive - is one of the best and most colourful shopping, dining and nightlife districts you will find in the city; and boasts home to Vancouver’s own 8 block officially designated Little Italy, representing more than 60 years of Italian heritage. Day or evening, The Drive offers 22 full blocks to explore with over 300 distinct merchants, including quaint boutiques, an eclectic collection of restaurants, a vibrant live music and bar scene, dinner and dancing, theatres, coffee houses, specialty food stores and bakeries. Trout Lake in all its beauty is a mere 10 minute walk from this location; a true oasis in the city. It also hosts a Farmers Market every Saturday from April 1st - October 28. Location is very central to DT and all that Vancouver has to offer. A one of a kind experience. Welcome to The Drive!
