We arrived at Amanda's Airbnb after pretty much 30 hours travelling from one continent to another. When we arrived, we were very surprised because it felt just like home to us.
You'll have everything that you need in the apartment to make your stay very, very comfortable (and I'm saying that as a person that came from a different country and culture). Washer and dryer and dishwasher? Yes. Apple TV? Yup. Super comfy sofa and even a cell phone stand? Yep! Amanda did really thought of everything. This exceeded our expectations.
The apartment is also very well located (it's close to Hastings and Cordova, but it's pretty much located in Gastown). You will get all the perks of living close to a very touristic and beautiful area. It's close to the steam clock, Canada Place and other touristic points. Also quite close to bars and delicious restaurants. We're glad (me and my wife) that — as newcomers in Canada — we were able to visit all of these places in a walking distance. If you're new to Vancouver or want to know historic/touristic places, this is your place.
Also, Amanda was amazing with us the entire time. She always answered our questions with a very good mood and ASAP. She was pretty much our first impression of Canadian people and the impression that we had was: she's a genuine caring, kind and friendly person. It feels like she's your friend since the first day.
This apartment is amazing. I highly recommend it. Just book it, you'll not regret.
