Alex's place was perfect for my group of friends since we are all couples and we each were able to get our own bed and room. The bed was definitely on the firmer side, but it didn't bother us too much. The living room/kitchen was a cozy hang out spot for us. The house is in a quiet neighborhood with a couple of different bus stops within walking distance. Our commute was often 30-60 mins depending on where we were/wanted to go in Vancouver so that is something to keep in mind. Overall, I really enjoyed staying at Alex's place and would recommend it for large groups.
