Amazing location. Can’t recommend Carol’s home enough. We walked to downtown daily and really enjoyed the local coffee shops, ice cream parlours and restos (including Greek, Thai and Vietnamese). We walked to Elizabeth Park and Van Dusen Gardens. Cambie is such a fantastic area brimming with cafes and restaurants.
Carol’s home is charming and traditional. The room is spacious with plenty of storage. King Edward station on the Canada line was only a few minutes walk (and easy to get to YVR airport on our last day). My only recommendation would be for Carol to install outdoor lights so it’s easy to walk up the stairs at night.
Vancouver is the most breathtakingly beautiful city with stunning natural beauty. Really recommend staying at Carol’s home and experiencing Vancouver’s gems including Stanley park, Lyn Valley, Robson Street, English Bay, Lonsdale Quay, and Richmond Night Market (steer clear of Hastings though… area with homelessness and people suffering from drug addiction). I’d definitely stay at Carol’s if I return to Vancouver.
