Espirito was so friendly and welcoming. She helped us out a lot during our stay with advice on places to go and things to do. She even helped is find a house to live in! Her house is close to the beach, the bus stop for the city is right outside, and there are plenty of amenities within walking distance - supermarkets, restaurants, etc. The room was lovely and really comfortable. Also Frankie, her dog, is a CUTIE.
This place is a great base for staying in and seeing Vancouver.
