Unless you want to be in the middle of downtown Vancouver, this must be the very best location! Close to bus stop, walking distance of Granville Island one way and shops bars and restaurants the other, all opposite a great beach full of life (but not noisy or rowdy). And there is parking included!
Appartment is very comfortable, kitchen well kitted out for cooking (although a bit of extra cutlery and crockery would be handy), Jamie always responded very quickly to messages and I would recommend this place.
