Mingxin's place was great for our visit to Vancouver. It is within walking distance of lots of great restaurants and shops. Costco is 2 minutes away, as is the Skytrain station that can get you anywhere you want in the city and surrounding areas. The Canucks' arena is just across the street which livens it up a bit before and after each NHL game.
The apartment is spacious enough for 2 couples with 2 bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms. The living/dining room is a little small, but we didn't spend too much time there as we were out exploring the beautiful city.
When we checked in, Mingxin had left us a boatload of snacks and goodies for us to enjoy during our visit. And, the place was decorated for the holidays with lights and a Santa Claus to make it feel very festive! We spent 19 nights there, most of them with snow on the ground, so it was a great winter getaway in a fun city.
We highly recommend Mingxin's place for your next visit to Vancouver!
