Patrick is an phenomenal host! He made sure we had access to the keys early and gave us early access to the condo to drop our luggage off. He was even out of town during our stay and still ensured we were settled in and had what we needed. Upon arrival the condo was beyond clean. Amazing first impression. There is nothing I would change about the condo itself. This description of the condo itself was completely accurate, the 'warning' of it being right beside a train track was also accurate, but also not an inconvenience at all (though I suppose that is subjective to each tenant) but for us... the trains went almost unnoticed and the view was phenomenal! My only concern was that the area was described at 'trendy' and 'up and coming'. In our experience the location itself was actually quite a shock. Two separate people living in Van informed us that it was a rather unsafe area of Van and a family member who has lived in Van for 20+ years advised we not walk around the area past dark as it was pretty clear we were tourists. We avoided this problem by renting a car for one day then using Car2Go for the remaining 4 days. (DON'T rent a car!! Just use ride share services like Car2Go!! Will save you so much money!) I think that it should be added to the description that this isn't the 'safest' area but still a highly desirable area if you have access to transportation. In saying all of that, this is definitely a location we would happily rent again
