Xiao An is a superb, friendly and generous host, and his basement rooms and bathroom and fantastic shower are perfect for anybody wanting a relatively cheap stay in Vancouver. The no. 7 bus to downtown is just a short walk away down Dunbar Street, where there are decent coffee shops, supermarkets, and restaurants and bars nearby on that street too. And the main room also has a huge TV with most channels if you fancy a night in. I will definitely stay with Xiao An again should I ever re-visit Vancouver.
