We enjoyed staying at this apartment. It is walking distance to a great selection of restaurants, Stanley park, Grandville island - pretty much everything! There was some food stuffs, like oils and coffee/tea available, which was nice. The apartment was clean, quiet, in a safe neighbourhood and well lit. Parking isn't awesome, but that's a reflection of Vancouver. We parked at the school parking lot steps up the street, but be warned that on weekdays you can only park over night and need to move out by 7am. Otherwise, park in the community center indoor parking that is off Haro st. Safe, easy - had no problems there. Grocery store is a five minute walk away. I would certainly book again with Phil.
