We booked Stella’s Airbnb for 2 nights. Overall we stay was ok. The location is great and is walking distance from the waterfront, Burrard Station, Stanley Park, and many great restaurants.
We ran into issues during our check-in. We arrived around 7pm and Stella had told us that the key was hidden near the back gate, but we weren’t able to find it. We messaged Stella to let her know and she said that she’d look into it. Unfortunately, we didn’t hear back with any updates and had to follow up on the status of the key several times. By the time we got the keys to the unit it was 1am!! We were extremely disappointed as we had to cancel all of our Friday night plans. Not a great start to our vacation at all. We had wasted one whole evening of our vacation just sitting around waiting for the keys and had to cancel all our reservations and plans for that night. At one point, we thought it would’ve been better to just book a hotel instead.
The property could use some work. There was water damage on the ceilings, the fans don’t work in the two full bathrooms, the shower door doesn’t fully close in one of the bathrooms, and clothes were still wet after running it in the dryer for one cycle. Just a heads up that’s there’s no AC in the unit (but apparently it’s common in Vancouver).
