Dave's place is a clean and cosy place to stay in Vancouver. We enjoyed staying in his place with a little child. I would say it was pretty much kid-friendly. The kitchen was well equipped and you could cook your meal or brew tea. We took our Moka pot to brew the coffee on the stove which was helpful. Dave has some primary cooking-essentials like salt, pepper, sugar cubes, tea bag, and whitener. I would suggest bring some oil, and dry food such as rice, lentil, and spices to cook your very fresh caught fish in the Granville Island's public market.
