Cozy spot in a perfect location!
We were in Vancouver over the weekend for the Taylor Swift concert and this place was absolutely perfect for my family of 4! Our girls (7 & 10) shared the pullout couch and we didn't feel cramped at all! Marilyse & Mike live in the unit upstairs, but we barely knew they were there at all. And they were instantly helpful every time we had a question. The unit is an easy 10 minute walk to/from Lonsdale Quay and the Seabus, so getting around Vancouver is a breeze! We'd stay here again in a heartbeat!
