I could not recommend Kai's place more because of the convenience of the location. It was in the heart of what I consider the Weho of Vancouver. So many great restaurants and shops all within a walking distance, and a lot of bike rental places if you wanted to bike around which I also highly recommend. The room was nice and clean - we also really loved the balcony.
The listing says no a/c so if you plan on staying in the warmer season and prefer nice cold rooms, they will not have an a/c. We used the fan and had to keep the balcony door open even at night because the top floor got warm pretty quickly (it was around 80 degrees that weekend).
Again having a car is not necessary when you're in Vancouver but we did end up renting one for the convenience of driving to some hikes which were only 15-20 minutes away. If you do have a car, there is metered parking from 9am to 10pm so just keep that in mind and costs 5$ CAD for 2 hours.
Checking in was a breeze and the kitchen was also very clean and convenient! Thanks Kai
