Location was great, central downtown. Apartment was generally clean, but sofa and chairs could use a good dusting. I wouldn't call this unit 2 bedroom, rather 1 bedroom + den (that has been converted to a 2nd bedroom - 2nd room is tiny so a bit misleading).

I gave the host a poor rating for the following:

1) She is difficult to get a hold of, the phone # on her profile is disconnected (strange to provide a # but it be disconnected). The fire alarm went off at 3 am and there was no instructions on what to do and no way to get a hold of the host. We couldn't ask anybody because we were told not to talk to anybody.
2) There was no hot water one day and the host didn't respond to my inquiries.
3) There was only enough toilet paper for one day, I have no problem buying more but didn't expect to do this on the second day. Similarly, there was no plastic bags to use for the garbages', again a hassle that you don't want to have to worry about on your second day.
4) There is a parking spot, but one of the keys didn't open the garage door. Also, there is a huge pickup truck which was permanently parked right beside the spot and a pillar on the other side so it is extremely difficult to park.
5) We were quite shocked that the host demanded more money from us after the stay and said the place was messy. We left closed cereal boxes and wine bottles, I guess this is considered messy. The garbage ONLY for that morning wasn't taken down as we knew the cleaner was coming and we didn't have any more bags. It would take somebody 5 minutes with a garbage bag to do this. Her message to us made us feel horrible and on top of that the sum of money she was asking for was ridiculous. She also asked to be paid in US dollars when the property and all costs are in Canadian dollars - an attempt from her to get more money out of us as the US exchange rate is 1.4x.

The host knows that this is my first ABNB stay and if I don't get a good rating than it will be difficult for me to secure future bookings so I am in a bind if I don't pay her, this is a form of extortion.

I know there are a lot of good ratings for this host but my recommendation would to be avoid her and this unit. Vancouver has tons of choice and you don't want to deal with a difficult host.

Also, I would caution people from staying here because I don't think the condo board appreciates ABNB and you risk getting thrown out.
