Overall, we really loved our stay at Kristy's place. Her flat is chic and trendy and in the perfect neighborhood. Gastown is full of wonderful coffee shops and restaurants and is very walkable. Kristy was easy to communicate with regarding check in and recommendations for our stay. The only downsides of staying at Kristy's place are price and lack of air conditioning. There are definitely cheaper options a little further out, but if you want to be central, it's worth it. Regarding the lack of air conditioning, there's no cross breeze in the flat and mid day it gets pretty hot. We slept with the fan on us our entire stay and definitely missed air conditioning, but I guess it's not that common to have air conditioning units in Vancouver. I would recommend the flat regardless.
