    The single room accommodation is excellent for a sole traveler. It was very nice to be welcomed with a glass of wine and some friendly hospitality, as well as numerous practical suggestions. In keeping with other reviews, I found the breakfast to be outstanding and very efficiently served for those on a tight schedule. More food was offered than most could eat and each bite was delicious, particularly the fresh blueberry pancakes with maple syrup and bacon. An added bonus was the free street parking. I would return without hesitation.

    Greystone is an outstanding b&b, in a lovely old home in a beautiful part of Vancouver. The owner, Graham, cooks and serves a variety of amazing breakfasts and is a charming host. The rooms are great, with very comfortable beds. I highly recommend it!

    Graham and Lee are wonderful hosts. Greystone feels like home when you return from the day out or a long walk down leafy Maple Street. Graham's cooked breakfasts are a great start to the day and his local advice on travel routes was very helpful.
