Hajime's place was a great place to stay. He was very easy to communicate with and gave us some excellent local knowledge/pointers on arrival. The apartment is easy walking distance to everything! The hop on hop off trolley stops on the same block and can take you to all the great sightseeing locations. Easy walk to the ferry to take you to Granville Island. Heaps of great cafes & restaurants located close to the apartment. The apartment is really secure and was perfect for our stay. Highly recommend!
