The place itself is very nice,modern and functional.
We stayed during very hot days in Vancouver (which is quite unusual), so having no A/C was a bit of an issue. There was only a small fan, definitely not enough to cool anything down. We left the balcony door open at night but not much air would come in and the noise from the alley made it absolutely impossible to sleep more than 2 hours straight. There's a lot of bums and loud people on drugs yelling and playing in the big garbage containers' lids--we even heard someone throwing stuff violently on the ground. It was simply put not a peaceful sleep.
This being said, if you plan on going when you won't need good air circulation, I recommend this place. It is central, WiFi works well, the place was clean and well equipped and I found communication with Monique very easy and she was very accommodating with an early checkin/checkout.
The building also has a rooftop patio which offers an incredible view of the city. I loved hanging out up there and enjoying the energy of this wonderful city.
