Carmen’s place is cleaner than most places available for rent in Vancouver - especially for this price!! Very affordable for the city. The apartment is a good size for 2 people. It’s a newer building so cool modern features - sliding wall to close the bedroom off from the hallway, fancy shower, the entire back wall of the apartment is windows! The bed was the best sleep I’ve had in forever!! We loved how many plants Carmen had and the art in the apartment is fun.
Do consider Carmen’s information about the area. The gorgeous windows at the back look in to the neighbours’ building which is not nearly as nice or comfortable looking (folks using pride flags or extra blankets to cover their own windows across the ally). The building is also beside a park where many homeless folks set up a tent city. It’s only a few blocks from fancy gas town but it may not feel safe enough to walk directly there if you’re not familiar with the area. You will likely see folks shooting up in the park or be asked for spare change. All of this we expected as I used to live near by and transfer busses to work here often. It was harder to handle though, staying directly in the area in such a nice building when everyone else in the neighbourhood is struggling so hard. Not Carmen’s fault what so ever - just something to consider when booking.
If you’re looking for a cool place to stay at a affordable price point would recommend 100%!
