Location is on a quiet street, close to transit, dinning and groceries. A great place to sleep and get on with your visit to Vancouver. Some who use the suite to sit and relax for extended periods may find it somewhat confining. There is no stove so food selection must be microwaveable. We never did see or hear the hosts but they certainly communicated regularly and provided wonderful suggestions for both food and entertainment. It was very convenient for us since we have family nearby.
