Carmen's place is exactly as pictured but it's ever better in person! It's super clean and well-stocked with kitchen supplies, a big shower-tub, and a comfortable bed. The reviews about the neighborhood are true too, there are plenty of homeless people milling about at any point during the day and night but they were perfectly friendly or just kept to themselves. My boyfriend and I had a blast staying here because it was so easy to access all the greatest parts of Vancouver and beyond. Highly recommended!
