    Stayed for about 3 weeks, had a really good time. The room is nice, the kitchen, washroom, laundry, internet and TV cable are all great. And Ms. Grossman is very kind and generous. She helped me a lot with food during my quarantine, helped to buy flight tickets with her credit card cuz mine couldn't work. Also appreciate that she introduced me to her family and friends. I enjoyed the time together with every one of them.

    Staying with June and Peter is an experience everyone should have. People that kind and friendly are rare to find. I felt like I was a part of their family from day 1.
    I had an amazing time in Canada and I will never forget the memories i got staying with you. Thank you for everything.

    It was an absolute pleasure to have Mads make his home with us for the time he did. He was the perfect guest - we really enjoyed the time he was here. His cheerful, friendly, and communicative manner helped to make the time so enjoyable. We sincerely hope that he will return for a lengthy stay next time. Anyone that has Mads as a guest is in for a real treat. We wish him all the very best, he absolutely deserves it.
    Sincerely, Peter and June

    Dear June, Dear Peter!
    I never thought I would find people on my trip who would make me feel like being at home. But I found you and I thank you so much for everything you have done to me. Never will I forget our barbecue evenings and the nights we played Canasta all together! And of course the trips to the Banff National Park not far from your place! You have been great hosts to me and I can nothing do but recommend you to everyone who is searching for a celan and warm-hearted place situated close to downtown Calgary and the beautiful Rocky Mountains!

How do I book?

Contact the host to check their availability and ask them any questions you have about staying with them. Once the host confirms they’re available for your dates, you can complete your booking.

When do I pay?

Once a host confirms they're available, you can go ahead and pay the 15% booking fee (maximum of 250 $£€ for longer term bookings) and a 25% deposit using a choice of payments: Visa, Mastercard, American Express, Maestro, Laser, JCB & PayPal. The deposit is collected in advance on behalf of the host to protect against no show or late cancellations (within 7 days of arrival). You then pay your host the balance due on arrival. The 25% deposit payment is made to the host 2 business days after your scheduled arrival date. This deposit payment will only be refunded if you cancel the booking at least 7 full days prior to arrival.

When can I share my contact details?

Host and Guest email address, phone number and home address will be exchanged in a confirmation email sent to both immediately after a booking is completed. It's against our policy for Guests and Hosts to exchange direct contact details via our messaging system.
