My hubz & I celebrated our wedding anniversary in Canada which began a couple days in Vancouver and then a few in Whistler. The start of our vacation at Howie & Lisa's house was seamless and just lovely! :) Everything you see in the photos is exactly what you see in real life. The basement apt is cozy and greatfully, CLEAN. That's a super PLUS for me. The convenience of the location was immaculate, Commercial Drive is uber sweet! There's lots to see/eat @ "The Drive", many boutique shops, food spots, grocery stores and a park that held a few outdoor events (although we didn't get a chance to be a part of the good commotion). The buses to Downtown Vancouver are literally walking distance, or down the block from the house so transportation was smooth like butta. Most importantly, Howie & Lisa had the best hospitality and personality to make our trip out there a-w-e-s-o-m-e. We felt at home and would for sure suggest this place to others as well as stay here again next time we're in town. THANKS HOWIE & LISA! <3
