Stay here! Seriously, my husband and I stayed at Nikki's place for a month when we first moved to Vancouver (that included two weeks of quarantine) and could not have been more pleased with our choice. Every need was anticipated - earplugs, umbrellas, courtyard kittens! - and Nikki was an attentive and communicative host. Gastown is a fantastic neighbourhood full of great food and beautiful architecture. Book it while you still can.
