Melissa & Alex’s place was in a very prime location near the sky train (which we weren’t able to use, sadly) and walking distance to great places for brunch and coffee. There was a pharmacy and supermarket a block away. The parking garage was very convenient and secure. Check-in/check-out was a breeze! We loved the in-unit washer/dryer, which is very needed when traveling with small children! Communication with Melissa & Alex was seamless; they responded to any queries very quickly. Some helpful suggestions for the guide book would include hours of operation for the pool/gym, but not a big deal at all. We had a great stay, and would gladly stay again when visiting Vancouver!
