Pros:
-- Great location, literally on top of the Shaw metro
-- Good value if you have lots of people
-- Nice building with a rooftop, gym
Cons:
-- The owner doesn't have permission to rent the apartment on Airbnb, which made for a bit of a paranoid experience
-- Way too many rules and fines for not following them (is that even allowable by Airbnb?)
-- Picking up the keys from a lockbox on a Chinese food restaurant was odd (not sure if the restaurant was OK with having the lockbox there)
-- The feel of the apartment is spartan and prioritizes profit over comfort (lacking basic amenities like paper towels and trash bags, all mattresses have crunchy plastic liners, all closets are under lock and key, furniture and bedding is cheap, etc.)
