The views from the wall-sized windows - Grouse Mountain and the port to the north, wrapping around a little bit to the west and east - were phenomenal.
I sank into the master bed like a luxurious cocoon.
The building is as secure as a prison; somebody at some point will shut the door in your face if you don’t use the fob.
Finding the library near the pool was a surprise.
The location is great, within a block of a grocery store, a Costco (if you need a few dozen of anything), a mall with a food court (Tina has great pho and Little Bangkok has great drunken noodles), a drug store, a coffee shop, a Korean Taco place, and the train station.
The apartment itself has a minimalist, corporate feel to it. Not really what I expected at this price point.
There was no tea pot or wash clothes, and only one trash bag and one small ice cube tray, but most everything else was stocked adequately.
One thing I didn’t like about the space was this weird glass-walled room with a desk. I know it’s designed to keep sound out, but it’s just ugly.
Overall the pros far outweigh the cons. Especially the view and the bed.
