We thoroughly enjoyed staying at Sasha’s place. The location is top notch with only a few minutes walk to the SkyTrain and any other must see portions of Downtown Vancouver. We did not feel a car was necessary so long as you don’t mind walking around to explore the city. As this was our first time in Vancouver, we definitely got to enjoy most of what the city has to offer (wish we would have stayed more days!). We would recommend to all my friends and would love to return someday!
