I had a two-nights' stay at Mark's place. I really enjoyed meeting Mark and spending some time in the neighbourhood between work days. The area is definitely one of my favourite nooks of East Vancouver, very safe and easily accessible by transit. There are Pros and Cons to the suite: massive Pro - Mark is good-natured, knowledgeable host; Also Pros - the place was warm, had great water pressure, and all the essentials needed. Cons - the suite is located directly under a busy living area, and you can hear the voices and movement from upstairs well into the evening. The way the bed is situated in the room, is tight for two people (my husband ended up not coming along, but if he had, it would have been tight). Final Pro - Mark is great at responding to messages and questions.
