Devan is a top-notch host. She responds quickly to every inquiry and does a great job of checking in to see how you are doing. There was some construction going on by her place and she made certain to tell us about it beforehand and inquired if it would pose a problem. We did not think it would and it did not. The condo is in a great location -- right across the street from the Kitsilano Beach area where you could easily spend your entire vacation with its beach, park, museums, and city views. There is also a convenient bus stop right by the condo which we used to go to the downtown area and avoid the traffic and parking dilemmas. However the condo also has a garage space that we made use of so we could use our car to go to outlying areas, like North Vancouver( which I would highly recommend). The condo was clean, very well -equipped, with all the essentials supplied. Devan seems to have anticipated the needs of her guests and made everything very easy to find and access. Laundry facilities are also there in basement area. There is no A/C but the portable fan did a pretty good job even in the midst of an atypical heat spell in the city. Lots of restaurants and shops nearby in case you do not want to roam too far. A delightful stay in a great spot.
