We really enjoyed the loft; there is so much space and it is well furnished/equipped. First we were a bit afraid about "East Hastings" area; but this part of the street is really safe and there are many shops and nice restaurants around. We felt comfortable all the time; even when we came back late in the evening. We can highly recommend this place. Of course it is a bit out of the city center but public transport is very good. And this loft is a great place to relax...not to forget the fantastic rooftop!
