Alex and Megumi are great hosts. We had very efficient communication throughout and they were very helpful. They made some nice changes to the place and were willing to bring back a desk to allow us to work on the upper loft. I can’t emphasize how easy it was to deal with them both. They even left us some nice snacks in the unit that we enjoyed.
In terms of the place, a couple things in mind that the hosts can’t control:
- in Yaletown it can be loud with the traffic near by throughout the day and night
- The apartment is pretty sound proof and the neighbors seem very nice
- everything is very walkable in the area. Even the sea walk is close for great hogs
- the upper loft can be a little awkward to move around especially with luggage. It’s a nice feature but a bit awkward to navigate. However a wonderful spot to work if you need to work during your visit
- the unit has rules for only two people. With the seating it might need one additional seat or couch for your comfort if you plan to stay in to watch tv with your additional guest
- the lighting (especially behind the tv) is nice and the automatic blinds are a plus
