Amanda is super nice and really took good care of us. Her quick responses and great instructions made staying at her downtown apartment a breeze. We stayed four nights and were able to walk to delicious dinners like The Banana Leaf for Malaysian food or La Belle Patate for poutine! We also walked down to the water taxi for a fun day on Granville Island (good market food, shops and a brewery there). The secure parking was such a help, too. Driving to places like Grouse Mountain or even Whistler is very easy. If we had more time, we would have rented bicycles from the convenient rental rack right in front of the building, and rode along the nearby sea wall to Stanley Park. Such an enjoyable stay!
