Thanks, Nic! I have really appreciated working with you these past couple of years. You certainly went above and beyond for me, and I haven’t forgotten it.

You really saved me with all that was going on there, Nic. I’ve thought about it a number of times and wondered how far it all would have gone had I not found you on the internet. Keep up with those videos!! That’s what did it for me, and then when we met, I could tell you were “the real deal” and that you practiced good business with and valued your clients. Vancouver almost ended in a bad experience for me overall, but you turned that around, and I will be ever grateful for that. You can put this on your website if you want!
These video updates are invaluable to us. I always feel that much more comfortable once I’ve seen the updates.I know our suite is in good hands. This is particularly important for us, as it’s our home. We’ve had great service, and I would not hesitate to recommend Downtown Suites.
