Our family from England stayed for 3 nights in August. It was a perfect location for getting to the beach, to Granville Island and cycling to Stanley Park (we hired bikes from Comor round the corner and found cycling from Kits to Stanley Park so safe and easy). There's plenty of restaurants to choose from that are walking distance from the house.
The house was so well stocked with loads of coffees and teas and all sorts of ingredients to help with any cooking you may want to do.
The place was spotless and Aaron was great at providing lots of suggestions and recommendations. I'd definitely recommend this place for anyone visiting Vancouver.
