Ann's space is very clean and welcoming. Even though it's a basement space, it's still very bright, with large windows in every room. Even though it's technically a shared space, I felt like I had a lot of privacy, and I didn't have to share the washroom with anyone. The whole space is up-to-date and fresh. Good water pressure in the shower.

Ann herself was available and open, and was very flexible about arrival and departure times. And the neighourhood is beautiful, with amazing gardens on every block (Ann's garden is lovely as well) and great retail and restaurants only a few blocks away. The walk to the Canada Line was comfortable and convenient, about seven minutes. If you're looking for a sweet spot between the airport and downtown, this is it.

I was only there for a night, but it's clear Ann's space is well-suited to extended stays. An excellent home base for exploring Vancouver. Next time I'm in Vancouver, I'll look Ann up again.
