We arrived in Vancouver at the apartment (with directions given by Aurora) 2 hours before he normal check-in time. This was no problem and Aurora was already there making sure everything was well in the apartment.
Aurora and her partner provided a list of recommendations for restaurants, shops and activities to do which we found really helpful to get us started.
The apartment itself couldn't be more central. It is in the heart of downtown and is really the perfect place to be when staying in Vancouver. There is a supermarket on the corner of the street and loads of great restaurants nearby. Best of all for us it was a great starting point for trips we took during the day. The apartment is a perfect size for a couple, the kitchen is great and we enjoyed our breakfasts on the table overlooking downtown.
There was a slight problem with the shower but this was fixed immediately and Aurora kept in contact to make sure it was alright.
We had a great stay in Vancouver and this was made even better by Aurora and how well she hosted us!
