We had a great time at Tamara's place. The price was good for Vancouver and the apartment clean, tidy and beautiful (by the way, what a nice shower!) But in my opinion the most important thing was Tamara's kindness and generosity. We checked in late and she had made the sofa bed up for my daughter, so we just had to tuck her in. We were also very surprised (first time it happened to me) and pleased to see in the morning that our first breakfast was covered. Bagel, yogourt, coffee, apple etc. Another thing that I really enjoyed was her exhaustive restaurants' suggestions. We tried one and had a really nice dinner. She also left us a welcome note. How sweet is that.
About the location, the neighborhood is quiet and nice, close to Main street with lot of shops and restaurants. We had a car, so it was easy to move around and go downtown. I was happy to have the car because it might have been a little bit too long to go to Stanley Park riding a bus with a little one. We parked on the street very easily, no time restriction or permit needed which is great.
Tamara was also easy to reach, responding to my messages very quickly which is always nice.
I really like staying there and would recommend it to anybody. I think that Tamara's place is a must to do in Vancouver ;)
