I stayed here while traveling solo and was both comfy and quite safe. There is an outer gate that pulls shut and motion-sensor lighting, plus the cottage door has a deadbolt. The neighborhood is safe for walking at night. Otherwise, this space is well-represented by the photos; designers have been here! It’s very, very clean; the details have been thought out and even the knife I used was sharp. You could cook comfortably here and the grocery is a short walk. If you’re new to Airbnb, this would be a good first place to stay. Also, I recommend this spot for bikers—it’s maybe 26km from the cottage all the way around Stanley Park and back; a lovely ride.
