My girlfriend and I had a wonderful two night stay in Vancouver at Howie and Lisa's. The place is perfect for exploring the city as it is half a block from a bus stop that can take you right downtown in 10 minutes. After seeing the city all day it was great to come home to such a comfy and relaxing place. I really liked being off of Commercial Drive as well. It is loaded with shops and restaurants so we could easily get a cup of coffee, some breakfast, and our all-day bus passes first thing in the morning. Howie and Lisa are very friendly and are happy to help out with information about Vancouver and BC. I am so glad they told me leave earlier than I had planned on to get back to the airport in Seattle because of the border crossing wait times...I am pretty sure I would have missed my flight without their advice!

I would recommend the city and Vancouver and Howie and Lisa's lovely apartment to all of my friends.
