This condo is located very nicely in downtown vancouver and is very close to numerous food and drink spots. As previous reviewers have noted, there was definitely construction noise that put a damper on our experience, but Alya cannot be blamed for that. Something that might be of interest is that you can also hear the restaurant downstairs so that might keep you up pretty late (and combined with the very early construction that started at about 6 AM each morning, we didnt get much sleep). Either way we had a great time and Alya was a very accomodating host.
