I had a wonderful stay at Malcoms place.
I got to bring my suitcase by before check in so I could go out get familiar with the neighbourhood.
The neighbourhood is colourfull, vibrant and full of life. Lots of cafés and restaurants very close by and it's also close to several buses and skytrain.
The house is beautiful and the room was very big and it was nice with private bathroom. Unfortunately I did not get to enjoy the private balcony much since it was raining most of the time I was there.
I didn't get to meet Malcolm but I met his mother Lisa who was very welcoming and nice to talk with.
When I one day come back to Vancouver I would hope the same room was available for me to stay in.
