Vivi's place was well appointed. Plenty of dishes, silverware, pots and pans. Also very clean.
I had liked the fact that Vivi included pictures to assist my check-in and check out.
The building is extremely quiet and clean, however parking is tight but it's good to have underground parking.
Vivi left a restaurant guide which was helpful.
For convenient shopping the Pacific Place Mall is only about a 15 minute(or less) walk and has access to the Hudson Bay department store.
Vivi/Jess were always in communication throughout my stay.
If driving from the airport I suggest you take Granville St all the way downtown. When Down Town on Granville St, turn left on Davie St drive up to Burrard and then turn right until you see Nelson St( , travel 2-3minutes until you see Howe ST , then turn right (Howe is a one way) 1010 Howe is on the left hand side and not far(meters away) from the key pick up.
I liked the balcony for morning teas and watching the activity outside below.
