Worth it. The place is very much true to the listing. The apartment looks just like the pictures and is clean and safe.
We stayed for a week on family vacation (3 kids) and had five people who fit very comfortably with the two bedrooms and sofa bed in the upstairs, which has really cool mountain sunrise views from the terrace if you wake up early. Priced better than two downtown hotel rooms, for sure.
Public transportation is right there, with easy bus and/or subway to all the sites and Uber finds you easily if you want that option. Get a Compass card for public transit.
The neighborhood itself is a little edgy but that’s Vancouver. After a day or two we figured out which areas to avoid on foot at night (steer well clear of East Hastings) and then no real problems. Just know that Vancouver is a big city with traditional big city issues and plenty of homeless population.
Tons of good restaurants and a grocery store (Nester’s) are nearby and you can walk things back to the apartment. Tim Horton’s is right at the end of the block for your authentic ;) Canadian experience.
Special credit to the hosts who were extremely responsive and friendly and great at communication. We asked for a few little things and they were very happy to help.
Absolutely recommended.
