Our stay at Paige and Grant's basement suite was short but sweet. The suite itself was beautiful. We visited in Winter and while it was cold outside, the heated floors make the place warm and comforting. As hosts, Paige and Grant are lovely. They're both super friendly, easy to communicate with and willing to help wherever they can. Paige's hand-drawn map was really useful and features almost everything you need for a great stay. It's walking distance to most things, including bars. restaurants and Rogers Arena. Don't be put off by East Hastings. Grant gave us a rundown of the area, and everyone we met (regardless of their demographic) was friendly. We felt completely safe. If you avoid the entire area you'll miss a heap of nice things.

All in all we had a great stay. Bonus points for the bathtub.
