My friends and I stopped in Vancouver to see the city for a day on the way to a festival, and the location was stunning! Mary's place was within walking distance from all sorts of awesome local spots, she was a lovely host and it was nice chatting with her and her husband outside on the patio. Her guidebook to the area recommended a perfect breakfast spot for us, a hole in the wall down the road we would have never found otherwise. The little apartment was perfect for our short stay and very convenient to drive downtown if you aren't familiar with the area. The apartment is equipped with everything we needed to make a dinner for our group of six, and I just loved the bathroom decor. Overall great experience and would highly recommend.
