A great location for myself as was visiting family literally around the corner. Very easy to access public transport or walk down the green way to Granville Island. Lots of food stores in the immediate area but also a quiet and very safe neighbourhood. I stayed for over a month by myself and felt very comfortable in the environment.
The garden suite is exactly as described, well equipped, though not a full kitchen but great if just reheating food. Everything is spotless with good quality linens and homely. As a host, Jin is responsive to messages sent and is a very prompt communicator. I would not hesitate to return.
