Alex's apartment was in a great location with a view. Easy walking distance from many sites in downtown Vancouver. Lots of restaurants very close. We enjoyed the lovely glassed in eating area, the large floor to ceiling windows and the fireplace in the living area. Alex met us on our arrival and, throughout our stay, responded quickly to our requests and checked in with us to ensure our needs were met. The only less than perfect point - we found the one bedroom fronting the street somewhat noisy but then we are not used to city living! I would definitely recommend Alex and his apartment.
