Sam's place is the perfect location for visiting Vancouver. We found the street to be clean and the building to be welcoming and quiet. The bed was comfortable with great linens and black out shades for a peaceful nights sleep. There was no noise from the street or other apartments. The apartment itself has a very cool design aesthetic with comfortable furniture and all the things you need to make it feel like home. So close to great coffee shops, bars and restaurants. We even walked from Granville Island back to the apartment. We can't wait to come back and will definitely stay here again.
