Tara's place was super cute, and a good alternative to a hotel room for the night. It was only a 5 minute drive to the airport, which helped with an early morning flight. The furnishings were new and the place was well styled. Comfy bed, Wifi, coffee and tea, iron, kettle, fridge, toiletries and towels all provided. The bathroom is outdated but clean, and the apartment overall could use some updates (windows) and patching up and painting in a few less-obvious spots.
The unit is a lower unit at the back of an older house. No picturesque views here.
It is also on a busy street. We stayed in summer, and had to keep the windows open because there was no air conditioning. The noise from passing traffic kept us up most of the night. We could also hear people walking and moving around in the rest of the house from time to time.
The house is in a good area of Vancouver, close to transit and groceries. For the price, you can stay in a hotel or have a more personal experience at this apartment.
