Alex's place is an incredibly clean and lovely apartment in Olympic Village. Its less than two blocks from the sea wall and easy access to downtown, Granville, and main street. Its also not just a good spot for tourists but as someone who lived in Van for two years and has recently moved away, this location reminded me of my favourite parts of Vancouver. Also, the little details Alex looked after (extra chocolates, snacks, a fresh fruit) just made the experience that much greater.
