We had a wonderful time in Vancouver and felt right at home in Marina's place. She has a welcome book with ideas of things to do and recommendations for local dining. The condo was spotless and it was great to have a few cooking essentials available like spices, olive oil and foil. It is a very quiet peaceful building. We enjoyed the neighborhood and even took advantage a massage at Barefoot Oasis just across the street in International Village Mall. Shopping and coffee are steps from the front door. It's lovely to watch out the window and see the boats in False Creek and other local attractions.
