Transit: 10/10
Everything is close by—subway is right up the stairs which takes you basically anywhere. City bikes are right out front and are so easy to use with all the bike lanes.
Condo: 10/10
Super modern and clean! Stunning views of the mountains and great area to cook. Feels like a hotel with white linen and white towels. There was also laundry which they provided a couple tablets so our clothes were always fresh. They have a dishwasher which we took advantage of (and yes they also provided a couple tabs for us to use)
Hosts: 100/10!!! (They are that good)
I can stress enough how amazing Nikkita & Samir are. They were able to accommodate us on our early check in and gave us a couple extra hours to check out! Super organized with everything they sent us. They even gave me a gift card to a blenz which made for a tasty breakfast one morning
Location - Day Time: 9/10
During the day is fine! Lots of people walking around but don’t be surprised if you see a couple homeless people walking around/sitting/lying on the ground.
Location - Night: 7/10
Night is when it changes a bit. Living is a city already I am used to homeless people around, but if you are not you might want to consider ubering once it gets dark. I found that if you ignore them they leave you alone, but if you are really not comfortable, it’s probably best to hop in a cab. You are close to the east end but not technically in E Hastings so it’s not that bad but not as safe as walking through Yaletown or something further North. Once you get in the building it’s very safe though.
