Great place, the decor and the warmth is always welcoming. Just a touch hard to see the street numbers when I first arrived because it was almost midnight but it was very well signposted in bright daylight. While staying there, I would either take the bus to downtown or take a stroll through Chinatown, pick up a coffee and keep walking on from there. It is located in a nice quiet middle zone between a few key areas of the city: Downtown, Main St/Commercial Drive and Gastown. I did even walk down the infamous E (east) Hastings St, but I felt ok walking any hour of the day with the main issue really being the 'grassy' smell on those blocks.
The room itself is very well lit, with nice dimmers everywhere and in the morning the sun comes streaming in nice and early. I even used the kitchen and Noah was welcoming in doing so (just no microwave but well equipped otherwise!).
In general Noah was very kind and gave great tips and advice. He even showed me a couple of cool things going on in the city, and great restaurant pointers too. As we seemed to both be quite busy I didn't see him much but I would definitely stay there again.
