We had a most of a week at the Bio Bio Suite. it is a cozy place, and has all that you need ... see the photos; the fridge is only a small one but on vacation who needs more? The patio was a lovely place to sit or to eat outside when it was not too hot! and the apartment stayed cool even as the outside heated up. We enjoyed both the regular Wednesday market in Nelson and the Occasional Friday evening market. Shopping on the main street in Nelson is fun and funny, we enjoyed the stroll at least twice. The Kootney Co-op is a great organic and local place to shop. I even enjoyed the chance to do some weeding with our hosts.
