Patrick's place was great and exactly what was advertised. We did not communicate much with him, but he has a helpful blog post and was quick to answer when messaged. When we came up to the building and took some time with the building entrance, a friendly neighbor gave us tips on where the unit was located. The industrial view through the huge window was (maybe surprisingly?) cozy to go to sleep to and wake up to. The train noise, as other reviews indicated, was definitely present but did not bother either of us. With the windows closed, all other port sounds (trucks, traffic, etc) were minimal as well.
The space was really cool and clean, the kitchen was stocked with small appliances and cooking tools. We didn't spend TOO much time in the unit other than sleeping but the couch was comfortable and it was nice to have a guest Netflix account. Location wise, it is close enough to most places in Vancouver while not having traffic and parking issues. Overall, would recommend a stay here! Just be careful on the stairs. :)
