Kandes' place was just on the edge of Shaughnessy and Kerrisdale, both truly lovely neighborhoods. For our first time in Vancouver, this was such a perfect location to stay to get a sense of areas outside of Downtown. We were about a 3min walk to the closest bus station which took us directly (and on time!) to the downtown area within 15min. Our neighborhood was quiet, safe, and clean, perfect for two city dwellers looking for a relaxing weekend. There were also a few Asian restaurants just a few blocks away.
The place itself was clean and well organized, so we immediately felt at home. All amenities were prepared for us including a great, full-functioning kitchen, a large tub and good shower, and a comfy bedroom with roomy closet space. We highly recommend staying here if you're looking for something different from just staying downtown. We can't wait to come again in the future!
