We have stayed at a lot of different Airbnb’s throughout the USA and world. In our experience, this particular Airbnb is very standard. This was our third time staying at an Airbnb in Vancouver.
The space: Clean, functional, comfortable, and supplied with the basic necessities. Exactly what the pictures show.
The amenities: good WiFi. Tv had Netflix. We were also able to connect our computer to the tv to watch dvds. No coffee maker but there is a keurig (bring your own pods!). Heating and cooling kept things very comfortable.
The host: fantastic communicator, very quick to respond. His instructions to get to the Airbnb, gain access, and park our car were very detailed and helpful.
The location: extremely central. Very easy walks to downtown, Stanley park, Gastown, Granville island, Chinatown, wherever you want to go! One minor set back to such a central location is the noise, exacerbated by the floor to ceiling windows. Overall, this only bothered us slightly and did not badly disrupt our sleep. The building itself seemed very quiet, although we stayed during Christmas week so perhaps people were away visiting family.
The environment/surrounding area: seemed very safe, no matter what time of day or night. There is a nice grocery store, a liquor/wine store, and a Starbucks across the street. Very convenient!
We really enjoyed staying at this Airbnb and would recommend it to anyone!!
