This is a true gem! Located only a block away from City Hall in a very beautiful neighborhood of historic homes, this recently renovated apartment is really wonderful!! Our first impression was one of perfect cleanliness and a lovely building with all that we could ever ask for - coffee, a vast selection of teas, oatmeal, condiments of all kinds provided. The really sparkling cleanliness was so refreshing to see; Cecilia said that is paramount for her and the result was obvious.
The apartment was amazing!! For the money, I was expecting a small space and instead I was pleasantly surprised to find a fairly large apartment. Closet space was ample and the bathroom was so well done.
The location was incredible as it was only a block away from many bus lines and a few blocks from a subway station. We got on the 15/50 bus that went all around downtown/Granville/Yaletown/Gastown. The single downfall to this apartment is for people who are older. From the subway station, it is about a 5-6 block walk including somewhat steep uphill. For my 90 year old mother, that was really difficult.
Cecilia is an incredible host. She gave us a great recommendation for afternoon tea and was always available for anything that we needed. I would highly recommend this apartment as it really is a great space in an absolutely fabulous neighborhood.
