Amy was a most cordial and accommodating host. She responded in a timely way to the couple of questions I had during my extended 18 day stay. (None of which questions involved any concerns about the condo.) She took the time to ensure I was able to get settled in, and she accommodated my request to drop off some of my bags early in the morning . An excellent host.
The condo is as listed. There eating area is a breakfast bar by the kitchen. Not a negative unless you plan on having a sit down dinner for guests.
The TV does not have cable so if watching lots of TV is your thing, watch the DVD's stored in the cupboard or bring your Netflix or apple TV account with you. (But hopefully you are not in the city to watch TV.)
Condo is very bright and cheery and the bed very comfortable. The kitchen is a higher end type with a gas range- if you are into cooking its a well organized and well stocked kitchen. All the utensils you need are in the cupboard and a major grocery chain is within a 1-2 minute walk to get your supplies. And of course the location is prime for taking part in all downtown Vancouver activities. This apartment is just around the corner from the high end Sutton Place hotel, and the apartment is just as fancy but with more amenities than a smaller studio hotel room with no kitchen and no balcony. ( The nightly rate in a major hotel in Vancouver might be around 300- 400, and you would only get s standard hotel room.) Based on other furnished condos I have rented in Vancouver, the rate of $100 per night is one that is not overpriced, and represents good value for your money. Good job Amy and thank you!
