Carol's place is compact but exceptionally well laid out and has everything you, or your small family, need to explore the fantastic city of Vancouver. The proximity to the Hillcrest Rec Centre and Queen Elizabeth Park was excellent as it offered access to a full gym, incredible pool for the kids and wonderful views from the park. Main Street is just a few steps away with superb coffee shops, interesting and unique shopping, grocery and splendid restaurants. We were able to walk or easily access transit for all of our adventures. Carol was extremely helpful and responsive. We'd highly recommend Carol's place to anyone!
