This is a great location, with an incredible view. We could walk everywhere but this place is also by the pickle boat landing and so could scoot across the water. Parking was easy, on the street for 1 1/2 hours at a time, or 2 short blocks over at the Yates St parkade with a daily rate of $16. Night parking there is free. Great restaurants everywhere, great shopping and activities. It’s a fun and vibrant neighbourhood where we always felt safe. We really should have stayed a second week.
