The apartment is quite nice and was very clean. Small but workable for us (two couples), and nice to have two bedrooms with their own bathrooms. Eric was really pleasant to deal with, and super responsive when we had a couple of questions. Nice views as well. However, I just can't recommend the apartment, as the location did not feel safe. Definitely would not recommend staying there for anyone who feels vulnerable, or is traveling alone. Vancouver has a terrible, sad problem with homelessness and drugs. Unfortunately, and we heard that this is very recent, there is a large tent city just a couple of blocks away on East Hastings St, and the effects extend to the area of this apartment. We didn't know about the tent city and accidentally walked through it at night, and felt pretty stressed out even though there were four of us. (I would definitely avoid walking there in the daytime too.) We love to walk and appreciated the ability to walk downtown to the various sights, but we would have enjoyed our first visit to Vancouver more if we'd stayed in a better (safer) neighborhood.
The only other thing worth mentioning is that the apartment doesn't have AC and has a lot of windows. That makes for good views but the apartment gets hot on sunny summer days. We weren't there much during the day, and it cooled off just enough at night.
