Brian's place is very much exactly as advertised, and worked perfectly for my purposes. The unit is clean, has it's own secure entry and felt like a very safe location. I needed a place to stay for just a couple of nights that was close to my daughter's place, she's a UBC student and this location was ideal. There is street parking in front of the home, a spot was always available. I'll definitely check availability at Brian's place for future trips to Vancouver.
