Cristina's condo is really well located - it's in the middle of downtown so only few minutes away from the major shopping streets (the condo also has a great view being on the 15th floor). You can walk to Yaletown in 15 minutes and Gastown in about 20 minutes.
The apartment has everything you need for a short stay (we also made use of the laundry facilities on the floor) and we found the check in process to be very easy.
