Hi,
Based on the review below, looks like this place is criminal ridden..am I supposed to be worried about it? I booked this place for 3 nights in June for part-time sightseeing in Vancouver. Therefore I am fine with the driving into Vancouver for 1 or 2 days. The rest I am planning to explore the area around Langley-Surrey or go into the US.
From TripAdvisor I see the reviews for this place is getting some pretty positive review.
Cheers!

Driving between Burnaby and Surrey is no picnic either. You will have to cross the new Port Mann Bridge, which has a toll that is (I believe) automatically applied through photographing your car's license plate. If you don't go online any pay each time you cross the bridge, the rental company will pass along that fee, plus some overcharges for dealing with it. Paying the toll is explained here:

You could try crossing by the toll-free Patullo Bridge, but this is a bit like using the Pulaski Skyway to get to Manhattan instead of the NJ Turnpike and George Washington Bridge.
My advice: if you're meeting is in Surrey, stay in Surrey, and watch your back at night in the parking lots.
