Shay's place was just as described. Wonderfully set up for a comfortable, cozy stay. It's within a minute walk to Safeway and Whole Foods, and a <10 min walk to Kitsilano Beach. The bed is comfortable, and even though there was no kitchen, the supplied microwave and fridge made it easy for me to enjoy leftovers and takeout (which I happily did, as I was also minutes away from so many delicious restaurants).
