David’s apartment was clean, tidy, and accurate to the description! Plenty of silverware, cooking utensils, fridge space, cool artwork, etc. It was located a short walk to the waterfront and would be ideal for someone attending an event at Roger’s Arena, which was probably less than a 10 minute walk away. BEAUTIFUL city views from the balcony!
Heat: We visited during an exceptional heat wave in late July - as is typical of Vancouver properties, there is no AC which made the apartment very hot well into the night. I’m sure this wouldn’t bother some people (my wife and I are from the central US where it gets hotter and even more humid, but most places in the US have air conditioning). The addition of a portable AC unit would be welcome. Due to the high temps we slept with the balcony door open, and this busy city street was quite loud until the early AM hours. I don’t mention these things as an inherent “negative”, but rather as factors to consider depending on the time of year you visit and your personal threshold for heat. We stayed in many airbnbs during our time in Canada and only one had full-on air conditioning. I imagine this unit would be sublime in the fall or spring when temperatures are mild/cold.
David was a fantastic host and I wouldn’t hesitate to rent this apartment again.
