Darren's place is in a great, central location in downtown Vancouver. walking distance to all main attractions. Cleanliness was superb and the beds/sheets were really comfy and cozy. Communication was instantaneous - left my jacket after checking out and Darren was able to let me back into the building right away. The only thing to be aware of, if you're traveling with young children, is that the building is in the middle of a busy/lively intersection so if you have children who are light sleepers, then this location may not be the right option for you. All in all, great host and a great stay!
