Paige and Grant's place is in an historic neighbourhood of Vancouver. The architecture is interesting and gardens are lovely any time of year. Many artists and writers live here. The neighbourhood is also quite multi-cultural, making it even more interesting. We have stayed with Paige and Grant many times, and never felt uncomfortable walking around day or night. Public transit is excellent. It's also possible to walk downtown or to the recreational walks along the seawall. We would recommend this place wholeheartedly.
