We'd loved our time in Vancouver at Chris' and Hilar's place. The check-in was very easy, the contact very nice and helpful.
The location was perfect for us (2 adults and 2 children), very calm and located in a nice neighbourhood with it's cute houses, front yards and fruit-/vegetables-/flowers-covered green-strips between street and pavement.
Public transport from and to Vancouver Airport YVR was very easy and it took less than 20-30 minutes to reach Downtown per bus/skytrain.
We can highly recommend Hilary's and Chris' place and would love to come back!
