Willem's place was the warm recluse I was looking for while being here on business and seeing family. The room is incredibly spacious with a couch for night lounging with a comfortable bed and pillows. The location was also A+, with the 22 bus stop right outside the Airbnb for easy access to downtown.
The only thing I would note (and this is me being very nitpicky but worth noting) is that 1) the desk and its underspace was a little bit small - the desk space was fine, but I like to cross my legs while working and bumped my legs against the top of the desk a few times. This was easily solved by me sitting a little further away with no interruption. 2) the microwave was tricky to use at first but I figured it out eventually.
If you see this listing open, I would book without thinking twice since it's very reasonably priced in relation to the Vancouver market and I would stay here again!
