From start to finish, Lindsay was on hand for any questions or requests we had. Leading up to the day of check-in, instructions were sent along with photos of the front of the building, which made for such an easy check experience for 2 people that had never been to Vancouver before and was exactly what we needed to get to bd after a long flight. The apartment was SPOTLESS, with lots of added extras such as shampoo and conditioner, tea, and coffee. I can't fault any bit of the stay. The location was ideal with the closest station only an 8 minute walk away. If you're looking for a morning coffee, th Swiss Bakery around the corner is beautiful with lovely staff. I will be booking again when I come back! Thank you, Lindsay, for all your help and for letting us stay at your place♡

Our stay in Vancouver
This apartment was perfect for me and my husband for our four-night stay. It is clean and bright with fun, modern furnishings. Very comfy bed! The glass skyscrapers that are so characteristic of Vancouver were all around us and it was fun to see the seagulls soaring among them--a treat for us land-locked Texans. The owner was extremely helpful in recommending nearby restaurants and sights and the apartment was very well situated for taking advantage of the major attractions. We loved it!
