Impeccable stay at this newly renovated townhouse. Absolutely recommend this calm oasis in the middle of Vancouver -- it was a perfect home base for our family with little kids to spread out.
The home is well laid out and spacious. It even has a proper office with a door, a rarity in Airbnbs. The main level bunk is a converted solarium with sliding door, and was suitable for kids. The upstairs bedrooms were so comfy and quiet, and had excellent firm mattresses. Unwinding on the incredible rooftop terrace with views of the city and sunset was the perfect way to end each day.
Everything in the home is brand-new. We appreciated the little extras like popcorn and candy for movie night, and even a Brita pitcher. We used the pool and spa every day.
Note that there are cameras on the premises. One is inside, facing the front door. Another is outside on the back patio.
Location is very central, literally backing onto the platform of Stadium-Chinatown station. There is noise from trains but it didn't bother us, it's a fact of city life. The 2 upper bedrooms face the other direction so noise wasn't an issue, and we used a white noise app in the main level bunk room which helped.
The immediate area is bustling with people and very safe, with grocery stores, good restaurants and cafes all within minutes. A little further out there are homeless people but we never felt unsafe. The unit itself is not street-level, but rather in a secure courtyard above the commercial shops which I really appreciated.
Our host Steve was so friendly and responsive. I had forgotten to request a high chair and when I inquired, he ran it over to us right away. Great communication and detailed instructions.
All in all, a fabulous stay. Don't hesitate to book.
