The first thing that struck us was how quiet the place was when we arrived. We knew it would be perfect after a full day of exploring Vancouver and it was! It's near a busy commercial street yet sitting in the garden you feel in a remote suburb. And we did use the garden! It's nice sitting outside before going to bed sipping a cold one. And for the beer explorers there are many microbreweries within 15-20min walking distance. We did not have a problem finding parking in the street which is another plus. Great base to explore Vancouver!
