We had a great time here - it was just as advertised. It was clean, check-in was fairly easy, and there were numerous restaurants and coffeeshops in the area within walking distance. We had the shared rooftop all to ourselves, with spectacular views of the skyline and mountains. And Alea was very responsive to any questions we had.
The only criticisms we had were that it was lacking in some basic amenities, such as a TV and microwave (as advertised), and there was no guidebook or local recommendations. Also, the area seemed very sketchy at night - we were hoping to explore the for some nearby bars but turned back when we came upon Hastings - the street & alleyways were smattered with hypodermic needles and crowded with people actively shooting-up; the homeless situation and overall gloom was unreal, on a scale unlike anything I've ever seen, even in Seattle (my hometown) or San Fransisco. There were fortunately a few nice cocktail bars and restaurants within a block or so of the BnB that we really enjoyed.
All in all, our stay was nice; I would recommend for someone looking to stay near Gastown on a budget.
