My partner and I stayed at Chris' place for two nights, and it was great!
Smooth check-in, clean room and a nice welcoming touch with complimentary tea bags and energy bars. He also provided us with hotel size soap and shampoo / conditioner bottles in the bathroom which we thought was really nice.
The location was also great; a few minutes walk from West Broadway with all amenities, and a short bus ride to Kitsilano beach. We used a car share to get there, and it was easy to park nearby.
Overall, it is a great place with a very hospitable host. We would stay there again if we are in Vancouver.
