This is a good location even though it's not in the heart of downtown Vancouver. It's in a relatively quiet neighborhood about half a mile from the closest SkyTrain station, and it's only 3 stops to downtown from there. If you have a car, it's 11-13 minutes to downtown Vancouver.
The house itself covers all the basics, but you won't find a lot of room to hang up clothes. You will, however, find a cold fridge, a range, lots of channels on the television, a cute balcony, and helpful host. Irene met us for check-in and was gracious enough to give us lots of tips and recommendations.
