Jorge was very welcoming and his communication was prompt. The check in/out process was also easy. My husband and I stayed with our teen daughter and we were comfortable. We didn’t spend much time in the unit other than to shower and sleep and for three people it was all we really needed. However, we should have looked more carefully through the kitchen prior to shopping for groceries to ensure we had all we needed to prepare breakfast in the morning as the unit had poor cooking supplies (frying pans, utensils) and the oven was very dirty. We did not use the BBQ on the balcony as it, too, was in poor condition. The dishwasher had water remaining in the bottom of it when we went to use it so we hand washed our dishes for fear of leaks. If you don’t plan to cook while staying there, it would serve your needs just fine as the location is close to all attractions and shuttles/public transportation. After hot days, the AC units were appreciated. It could be noisy at times, but not unlike what you would expect when staying in downtown Vancouver.

The propriety is in a fantastic location. It was clean. We did not contact the property owner on the following issue. They may have resolved it quickly. We were left with two bath towels for two women and one hand towel. The towels were clean but not dried in a dryer so they were like using sand paper. They need more bath towels (long hair usually requires an extra towel), towels dried in a dryer, plus add face clothes.
Overall this is a fantastic unit in a great location.

We were a family party of 5 adults and the space was fine. There were only 4 each of plates and mugs though which was a little inconvenient. We were able to do a load of laundry easily once we found the room behind the door to the stairwell. Directions for everything else were very clear
Location was great for public transit wherever we wanted to go and there’s a good grocery store a couple blocks down the street.

Great property location for walkable entertainment, dinner, drinks and tattoos. Communication with owner was easy, quick and friendly. A map of the apartment complex would have been helpful but other than that, amazing stay!

Great stay in this cozy condo. Came to visit Vancouver with 3 girlfriends, and this made it perfect. Thanks for sharing your accommodation with us!

Good location for visiting downtown Vancouver. It was clean and well-furnished with basic amenities (soap, shampoo, towels, cleaning supplies etc).
I would stay there again.

We rented this VRBO for three nights. The apartment was very clean when we arrived. Communication with the owner was good. The area was a convenient, bordering on a couple not so great streets, quite noisy over night and in the morning, but to no fault of the owner. Our biggest issue was the furniture. The chairs around the table were so wobbly to the point that they were unsafe and we could not use them as they would’ve broken under pressure. We ended up using end tables to sit on. Even worse though were the beds. We have never experienced such uncomfortable mattresses. We tried both and after two nights of no sleep, we left the apartment one night early. We lost a lot of money by doing that but we could not stomach one more night in those beds. We are not fussy people but if you are paying that much per night, there is an expectation of a degree of comfort. It felt like it was thrown together with whatever they could find without thought of the people staying there. We would not rent here again, if fact will likely not use VRBO again because at least in a hotel there are basic standards and controls in place. I didn’t see any bed bugs but there was some sort of bug powder behind the master bed which made me very uncomfortable.

Really enjoyed staying here. Only criticism would be that curtains let in too much light at night so if you like a really dark room when sleeping, it might be a problem

We had a fantastic stay and the location was great.

The location of the property is unbeatable. If you're visiting Vancouver for the nightlife on Granville, you couldn't be closer. An easy 20 minute stroll to either Canada Place and the North Harbour or the South Harbour in the other direction.
The apartment was very well stocked with essentials, has a queen, a double bed, and a pull-out couch, and it was great to have individual AC units in both the living room area and the bedroom.
The building management needs to stay on top of it's garbage and recycling area better and we had bit of an issue with picking up our keys - the wifi in the convenience store kept cutting out and it took 4 resets and 30 minutes to get the keys out of the machine. To Jorge's credit, he was easy to get ahold of as we worked through the issue.
Overall it was a great stay and we would book again!

Well equipped and well located for a holiday in splendid Vancouver. The bunk bed is only for younger members of the family or more agile adults. The kitchen is well equipped although there are lots of restaurants nearby. The parking space was a real bonus when we picked up a hire car at the end of our stay.
4.4
Very private place to stay. Feels like you're far away from the hustle and bustle of the big city but only steps away from Granville St., A short walk to the City Center train station. Very homey feel. 5 minute walk to grocery. I'll definitely stay again.
4.4
The apartment is well located for easy walking around Vancouver. As expected for a city apartment, space is at a premium. We appreciated the reasonable sized kitchen and bathroom. The building felt secure with good access controls in place.
It was pretty noisy with sirens going off throughout the night (it’s located near a hospital). Also a lot of partying people wandering past at all hours. The apartment faces east and has thin blinds meaning it’s very bright once the sun’s up plus it gets quite warm as we kept the windows and door closed at night due to the high outside noise levels.
All that said I recommend it due to the excellent location.

Great apartment in the hipster part of the city. We walked to some really nice restaurants. Cool loft bed!

Clean, great location, very secure, sleeps 6 is a stretch...we had 4. Inadequate bedding, no hangers for clothing, bathroom linens in short supply as well. I feel that it would be grand for 2 people unless beds were improved.
4.4
Jorge was extremely accommodating and the communication was great. He even was able to refund the parking fee since we didn’t bring a car. He was friendly and helpful and the place was perfect for our stay! Would definitely visit again.

The unit was located in central downtown Vancouver which was convenient for walking to the best attractions in the area. The unit was clean and welcoming. In addition, the security was outstanding with key-fob building and elevator access. The only recommendations I have are that guests have more pillow choices (the pillows provided were very thin and not comfortable) and perhaps have a welcome coffee/tea serving for those just arriving and who haven't had a chance to go to the store yet.

Great place; very clean, secure and accessible, with all the amenities. Short walk to restaurants and the waterfront! Will stay there again for sure!

Nice space, middle of everything….. the towels were clean, but a little crunchy with some traces of pet hair…..my guess is from air drying and there wasn’t ample/usable cookware (pots/pans) otherwise all was great. Maybe just bring your own towels and order in instead of cooking. Otherwise it was really nice. Building was great too! We felt super safe and comfortable

My friend and I enjoyed our stay here. Located close to lots of restaurants and attractions. Maybe a few upgrades would help. e.g.. blinds and some more plates etc in kitchen. Overall, great condo... Thanks Jorge, you were very helpful in refunding our parking fee too..

the location is good to the stadiums, restaurants, shopping. We found that being so close to Granville St. that is was noisy at night. The apartment was very clean. It is getting a bit rough around the edges, blinds partially broken, kettle rusty. That being said it had all that we needed and we were comfortable with 3 adults.

We wished for an apartment in a central location, near transport facilities, warm, clean and with comfortable beds - that's just what we got ( even the loft bed was comfortable) and as a couple it served us very well. Your are able to book with confidence if this is what you are looking for.
Apartment had a few little niggles (bedroom light flickering, bedroom heater not initially working since it's isolator switch flipped out and scissors broken) but these did not detract from enjoying our stay. Earplugs however were required at the weekends since the bedroom does overlook onto the very lively Granville St.
Apartment is well equipped, access to property was simple and communication with Jorge was good.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Excellent place located in a very central downtown location in Vancouver. We were there for a conference at the Canada Place (Vancouver's convention center). We were only 15 minutes walking. There are many grocery stores very close and excellent restaurants/nightlife also within walking distance. Would HIGHLY recommend, as the actual apartment was very clean and comfortable.

Thank you Jorge, my friends and I loved this space! Large corner windows let a lot of sun in! Very cute apartment and close to everything!! If this is your first visit to Vancouver you’ve got to hit La Cantina, the taco place right next door!! A must! All in all we had a 5 star visit while staying in this rental! Would definitely rent it again!

Property was clean and well maintained. Loft bed was a little "lofty", so we opted to use the pull out sofa.
Unfortunately, on our arrival day the hot water went out in the building and was not restored until the afternoon prior to our departure. No fault of the property owner. Things happen. Location was amazing. Quiet building. Would book again!
