Patricia was extremely warm and friendly, I enjoyed talking with her and everything was as she described. She has a beautiful home, which was perfect for my seven night stay and was quite convenient to get to the convention center for the conference I was attending. Plus I really enjoyed exploring the area, Granville Island and strolling the seawall were wonderful. The area seems quite safe and I feel comfortable walking from the sky train or the bus as I use public transport the whole time which was also easy and Patricia shared information about that and more. Highly recommend it!
