Quiet location with a lovely patio in the back. Enjoyed drinking coffee in the morning and watching the golden rays of the sun reflect off the nearby foliage with mountains in the distance. Walking distance to nice eateries, coffee/drinks as well as ice cream. Bloedel Conservatory is within walking distance. We had a vehicle so not sure about the ease of public transportation but Jane provided that info in the welcome pamphlet. Kitchen is stocked to make meals and the tv with Netflix provided a wind-down in the evenings for my parents. My parents liked that it felt like a home - it didn’t feel sterile. Beds were fine - the second bedroom has a firm mattress but that’s to my liking. We ended up spending more time exploring the neighborhood than we expected :)
