I stayed 5 nights (Sept. 23-28th) at Craig's place. Craig allowed me to drop off my bag at 11:00 and come back later after the place was cleaned which was great since I flew into Vancouver in the morning. The place was clean and the furniture was modern and clean.
The best features about this place is the location and the view. I wasn't familiar with Vancouver before arriving so when I booked I wasn't quite sure where in the city to book. I didn't have a lot of choices by the time I booked but thankfully Craig's place was available at the time. After spending days walking around the beautiful city I realized Yaletown was an amazing place to be. I was able to leave the condo and be along False Creek (the water you see in the pic) within a couple of minutes. From there you can walk all around False Creek and end up at Granville Island (bus or ferry back). You can bus or walk to Kitsilano and walk along the water all the way to UBC. You can walk in the other direction and walk along the seawall to English Bay beach and be there in 30 minutes. Another 15-30 minutes you're in Stanley Park. Leaving the condo, you can also walk 10-15 minutes and be on Robson to shop. The location is really great. I also discovered my last evening that there are phenomenal restaurants on Mainland and Hamilton which is literally a 1 minute walk from the condo.
The views from the condo were mesmerizing. I truly appreciated sitting in the dining room catching up on emails, work, etc., while looking out at the view. The sun would come over the buildings from the left and the light would sparkle on the water in front.
I didn't use the kitchen at all other than to store a few things in the fridge and to have coffee. There are Keurig coffee pods so I had a coffee each morning (there is sugar in the cupboards left for guests). If you want cream/milk, you'll need to buy some. There are plenty of coffee shops within a 1-2 minute walk as well (I'd like to recommend 'Small Victory Bakery' just down the street). I noticed there were spices, olive oil, syrup, etc., in the cupboards which were items likely left by past guests which would come in handy if you're planning to cook.
Having laundry in the condo along with laundry soap was handy. I also appreciated how shampoo, conditioner and body wash is left for guests. It's always nice not having to pack those things.
The TV is large but I didn't use it once. I had too many things to see in Vancouver rather than watch TV! I brought my own little Bluetooth speaker to listen to music (would be nice to have one there for guests, though). There is a yoga mat in the closet that I appreciated using for stretching after walking so much. There are also some weights and a kettlebell (I'd suggest resting them on the yoga mat if you use them to prevent it being loud for folks in the condo below).
The only negative thing I have to say is you can hear people in the condo above when they move a chair or if they get up and walk when it's quiet in the condo (for example, at night time). I should say I am a super light sleeper so I wake with any noise. Overall though, they were quiet. Otherwise, I didn't hear people on either side and the building itself is very quiet and felt safe. I rarely saw other people in the building when I travelled up and down the elevator.
Would I stay there again? Absolutely. The location and view were amazing and the condo had everything I needed.
