Inge and her family are wonderful hosts. The apartment, including guest bedroom and bathroom, is lovely. The view of the mountains north of Vancouver is amazing. It is well-located in Chinatown. Short walks and buses get you quickly to most places of interest in the city. There are good Asian restaurants nearby and a coffee shop right next door. On Hastings, nearby, there are many homeless people. If that bothers you, walk on Pender rather than Hastings when you go to and from Gastown (cool neighborhood) at night. I always felt safe either way.
