I really enjoyed Van's place. It was very close to some train stations that allowed me to enjoy Vancouver's exceptional public trans system. California doesn't really have a wonderful public trans system, so I enjoyed being close to the train stations. It was a very wonderful room to stay in, perfect for a place to rest at night after spending a day exploring the city. The home was well heated and I did get hot while sleeping, which is perfect for someone who's not used to the Canadian cold--I didn't even need to use the radiator provided! I also really appreciated having access to a washing and drying machine to do laundry during my short stay since I was able to keep my one jacket clean every day. It was my first time using AirBNB and I am glad Van offered a positive first-time experience for me!
