We had a lovely stay at Cindy's apartment. There are amazing views of the waterfront and city happenings from the wall of windows. In fact, we ended up researching and finding tickets for Cirque (which was a lot of fun) simply because we could see the tents from the apartment. The location is fantastic, with Chinatown and Gastown and TONS of restaurants nearby. The apartment has almost everything you might need for a short stay and she has thought of clever ways to maximize the space (foldaway table, etc.). We appreciate that she has a pet-friendly policy and in fact Vancouver as a whole seemed to be very animal friendly. Cindy was very cordial and communicative and when we requested a late checkout, she was happy to accommodate. As another reviewer noted, through no fault of Cindy's, the parking spot is tight, so just be aware if you are driving a larger vehicle. We had problems with our Toyota Highlander. The only other things to note, which might be somewhat particular to us, are that the beds/pillows all seemed really firm and that the shower didn't get as hot as we would have liked. All in all, we had a very nice stay and appreciated our gracious hostess.
