Lori’s place is very clean and she has a lovely garden area where you can relax & unwind. The location is out of the busy downtown area, but close enough to hop on a bus to get downtown or to the cruise ship port. (Purchase a Compass Card day pass) We enjoyed a delicious dinner at an Ethiopian restaurant within walking distance on Hastings Ave (avoid Hastings Ave after dark!) Btw there are no Uber or Lyft drivers in Vancouver- we found the taxis unreliable. Would definitely recommend Lori's place.
