This is a fantastic place to stay - we found it easy to get to by public transport and really well located for walking and cycling around Vancouver (mobi bikes are handy on the nearby streets). It's just round the corner from great shops, restaurants and bars in Gastown, but the apartment itself is in a quiet location and access off a gated courtyard feels secure. Tatiana's place is very spacious and well designed with lots of interesting/quirky features and nice plants. We were torn between wanting to spend time in such a lovely apartment and going out to enjoy the buzz of the neighbourhood! Tatiana was very good at communicating with us by email and although we didn't meet, we felt she cares that her guests have a good experience. We'd definitely book this one again.
