The Vancouver Connection is exactly as depicted and described--clean, open, well lit, and comfortable. Very comfortable in fact. The neighborhood is just that--a nice area surrounding a small business area, and a short walk to several beaches. If you stay here, be sure to visit the University of BC's Museum of Anthropology. World class in all ways. Communication with Michel was clear and timely, and having a washer and dryer after being on the road for ten days was a bonus. Also be sure to try Aphrodite's up the street--best garden salad ever! Thanks!
