This place in East Vancouver is a great place to stay. It's not downtown, but it is in a nice section of town with great restaurants and independent shops and boutiques. The apartment is large, quiet, safe and completely stocked with what you'll need, including a coffee maker and all kitchen utensils, shampoo and conditioner, hair dryer and lots of closet space. Bus to downtown is about 20 minutes and a 5 minute walk from the apartment. Supermarket is a five minute walk away. Fun to stroll on the Commercial Drive, a lively strip during the day and early evening.
