I highly recommend this place. It had all the conveniences of a hotel, motel ie. internet ,microwave, fridge, cable t.v. It also had maps and scissors which both came in very helpful. I did not meet the host but his sister and father. They were both very helpful when needed but otherwise left us in private. The room is a little on the small side but but because of that it had a very cozy feel to it. I will be booking this place again in the future when I return to Vancouver.
