Everything about Amy and her place said "Welcome to my home, Welcome to Vancouver!"
Amy was a great host, communicating and sending lots of helpful info from the beginning, and was very accommodating - especially when our arrival plans changed at the last minute due to an emergency!
The condo is beautiful, bright, immaculate and perfectly situated for anyone visiting Vancouver and BC. It provides a beautiful view of the downtown area, close to shopping, restaurants and attractions. Parking was included so we used it for part of the time for a rental car to see other parts of BC...but thanks to the excellent location, and Amy's tips on bike rentals, we were able to walk or bike anywhere in downtown Vancouver so didn't need a car for the entire 2 weeks. The location is in a lovely and friendly area of downtown where we felt extremely safe walking about, even late at night.
Amy provided a wealth of info about the city, the sites, restaurants and more. The kitchen was fully equipped for cooking, with everything anyone would have at home, and more, and with a grocery store nearby it is ideal for those who want to stay for a two weeks but don't want to eat restaurant food at every meal! The bathroom was very clean and comfortable with a large shower and soaker tub and added special touch of toiletries and candles. The bed is comfortable and provides a wonderful night view of the city (unless you close the blinds!) The living room is also comfortable and I bet the fireplace would be divine in the winter months but we spent most of our time at the condo on the balcony! Laundry facilities in the suite are a HUGE bonus as you can travel light!
This was our first AirBnB experience and thanks to Amy we feel confident using it on future vacations, but when we return to Vancouver, we will definitely be booking Amy's place again!
