The apartment is as shown in the pictures and is well-located in downtown Vancouver within walking distances of shopping centres, Yaletown, seawall and various marinas. The apartment has modern appliances, access to laundry facilities and is very good condition. Michele is a pleasure to deal with and very responsive. She is also accommodating and allowed us to check in early. The one thing we did not fully appreciate was the lack of AC, which we later understood that AC is not typical in Vancouver. We were concerned as there was a heat wave the weekend we were staying and we were concerned our one year old would have trouble sleeping. However, Michele was very responsive and installed a portable AC into the unit which resolved any temperature issue. She didnt have to do this and is a testament to her hospitality as a host. I would further add that the temperature in Vancouver is generally cool to cold so what we experienced with the heat was unusual and likely not be experienced in other months of the year. I would highly recommend staying at Michele's apartment.
