We loved our stay in Magie's suite! My mother and I came for a long weekend to celebrate her birthday and had a lovely stay. The suite is very clean, well-decorated, and cozy. It is a basement suite below Magie's home, so the ceilings were indeed low. At 5'8" I was comfortable, although I did instinctively duck through a couple of the doorways and my hair could bump the frame when I piled it high on my head ;) My mother generously let me take the bedroom. The bed was quite comfortable, there was lots of storage in the closet and dresser for unpacking clothes, and Magie provided a space heater which was perfect for the chilly fall evenings. My mother ended up putting the sofa bed mattress on the floor as the frame had an odd tilt to it, but was comfortable there.

Magie was incredibly kind and opened up the suite for us far earlier than planned when we arrived in the late morning and both check-in and check-out were smooth and easy. Wifi worked great. We never turned on the tv but she gave us her netflix code if we wanted it. The bathroom was lovely with a nice big, tall shower with great water pressure, and she left some toiletries and a good hairdryer as well. The kitchen was well equipped, and although we didn't cook (too many restaurants to try!), we made many cups of tea and had everything we needed to prepare snacks and reheat leftovers.

The location of the suite is absolutely excellent. Commercial Drive had tons of restaurants to keep our adventurous palates satisfied and it was a very quick walk to the Sky Train and easy to get into town for sightseeing. We also took a great walk down to Trout Lake Park in the evening, which was a lovely way to wind down.

Overall we had a really wonderful stay in Magie's Blue Star Suite and would highly recommend it!
