Pros:
- really close to everything in Kitsilano - a few minutes downhill to the beach and some restaurants, a few minutes uphill to the main road with lots of shops and more restaurant choices
- house is well fit out - laundry, kitchen things (including good quality knives!), little office space, solid wifi (I had a number of video calls)
- Livio is super easy going and easy to communicate with - I had a few questions during my stay and he responded quickly and kindly
Cons:
- Minor: I found the house a bit cluttered - nothing major, but this is clearly a real, live-in house rather than an almost empty apartment only for AirBnBs.
