We did select the housing for our second Vancouver stay by purpose very centrally downtown in Gastown. So we did knew about and expected the environment which could be perceived as somehow rough. We believe it‘s authentic like you would find in other big cities as well. We liked the location and the appartement. Communication with Sam worked well. The only minus point (where one just might need to think about): When it is very hot outside like these days, it‘s hot inside as well. It‘s not really possible to cool down over night or get much fresh air in.
Beside that, an appartement where one can feel home with positive personal and individual style.
