We really liked this apartment. Well sized for two, fairly well equipped, great kitchen with most of what you want in everyday life. Wonderful balcony, we enjoyed it extensively, both mornings and evenings.
The bed is large and firm and well sized for the two of us as we are not using size small or medium. The washroom was nice and in working order.
Location is great. Kitsilano is our favourite neighbourhood in Vancouver. Green, spacious, cosy and easy to reach anywhere in Vancouver using public transportation.
1 block from one of Vancouver’s best cafe’s Arbutus cafe. 2 blocks from a thrift store that can help you getting used stuff you forgot at home! 3 blocks to Whole Foods, 4 blocks to Safeway and in the opposite direction to NoFrills. And in between all of that, lot’s of stores and offerings on 4th st.
The welcome paper covered the information we needed.
Upon arrival the apartment was dirty, in need of attention and care.
We vacuumed and washed the floors and oiled the quirking doors and windows. This made the place comfortable for us - and we were doing work that wasn’t really our responsibility.
Communication with the hosts led to improvements - they brought a new water kettle and fan on our request and they cleaned the stove. We appreciated that.
