We are a 50+ year old couple enjoying empty nest travel and our stay at Vick's was great. We didn't rent a car, and loved the that everything we wanted to do was easily accessible by transit. Vick's place is in Yale Town which has a great vibe with all sorts of restaurants, bars and shopping. Ksenia was our main contact and was very responsive. We spent 6 nights at Vick's and it was comfortable, clean, well kept and safe. We would definitely stay at Vick's again if we ever get lucky to travel back to Vancouver. As a suggestion - check out all the food options in Yale Town - from hole in the wall shops to high end bistros - it has a very diverse neighborhood of culinary delights.
