This is a fantastic place to stay. A family of four this worked perfectly for us as the location gave us easy access to Granville Island, Stanley Park and restaurants/cafes. The fresh food market on Howe was also excellent. Patricia is a fantastic host and super responsive. The apartment was clean and beds comfortable. The only two things I’d mention would be the key pick up and drop off is about a 10-15 minute walk from the apartment which we managed with two kids and four suitcases, but I mention it so you can plan for this. But the process was super easy. Second, the location is downtown so expect to hear the occasional siren and horn, but this didn’t bother us or the kids.
Overall a fantastic experience.
