Sam’s place was a perfect location from the train station. We arrived quite late and I was worried about the proximity- the cab ride was less than $6.00 (a saving grace at midnight). Certainly close enough to walk to on the day we departed. The full kitchen was great, the bed was comfortable and the view was spectacular! Although we didn’t meet Sam, his responses to messages were timely and he offered great local suggestions. The cost was extremely affordable compared to some of the hotels I looked into (a lot more available space for sure). I would definitely recommend Sam’s place to anyone looking to stay in Vancouver.
