Thomas' place is a cute little house on a quiet East Van street (plenty of street parking was available). The house is equipped with everything to make your stay comfortable. They also have a very cool record collection that we enjoyed on our stay.
Hasting-Sunrise is a seriously underrated neighbourhood with some very good restaurants (Tamam, Mr. Red Café, and Roundel Cafe were personal favorites) and parks. The Airbnb is in walking distance to East Van Breweries and the Drive. There are easy bus options to get downtown and connect to the SkyTrain and you are also close to the bridge to get to the north shore mountains.
I would recommend staying at Thomas' place for anyone looking to stay away from the top tourist spots and get a more authentic Vancouver experience.
