We live in this building and love the location so we bought a 2nd condo in the same building to rent out as a vacation rental.

Amazing Vacation

Thanks to Nancy and Kenn for providing a lovely condo and being wonderful hosts. The location is perfect with the Skytrain station a block away, and restaurants, grocery store, downtown and Granville Island all within walking distance. The condo is well equipped, clean, nicely decorated and very comfortable. We highly recommend this property and hope to stay here again on our next visit to Vancouver.

My husband and I just spent a week at Kenn and Nancy's condo in order to take in the Grey Cup festivities. The condo was in the perfect spot to walk to BC Place for the game or to take the Skytrain down to the Convention Centre where all the partying was going on. The condo had all the requirements, from a cheese grator to a hair dryer and the gas fireplace gave that nice cosy feel when you came in out of the rain. The condo was spotless like others have noted and the coffee and juice in the fridge for the next morning's start was very much appreciated. We will certainly check on the availability of this condo when we return to Vancouver for a visit and will be only too happy to recommend this to all of our friends. Thanks Kenn and Nancy for the use of your condo , we really enjoyed ourselves.

I am so happy that I found this property. My husband works at a resort & gets great discounts, but we decided to go VRBO that way we could cook our own meals & not be spending money eating out 3 times a day. Can I just say that was the best decision ever? No hotel could've ever given us the experience we had with Nancy & Ken(owners). For starters, our flight arrived extremely early in the morning. For a hotel, we would have had to wait til 3pm to check in. Not here. Not only did they allow us early check-in, but they met us downstairs in the lobby, gave us the royal tour, and had lit the fire, and were all smile all before the sun came up. They were lovely enough to stock our fridge & cabinets with several staples. AND they bought us a giant pumpkin to carve. ABOVE & BEYOND!!! The condo was amazing. Beautifully decorated. All the comforts of your own home. FIreplace was the best treat after a cold day about the city. Location was prime. Everything was within walking or biking distance. Several markets nearby made it easy for us to shop and cook at "home". Felt very safe & secure as well. Please do yourself a favor and book this rental. I promise that you will be delighted-by the condo, location, but most of all, but the extreme "wow" factor that the owners provide!!

Not sure you could ask for more in a rental than this one, right down to the OJ and milk in the refrigerator when you arrive! Easy access to public transportation, great amenities and wonderful hosts! We especially enjoyed having bicycles to use to explore the city.

My wife and I stayed for six weeks in this well-located property. Ken and Nancy made us feel appreciated through our entire stay. They were available to answer our questions and bring us a few extras we needed for our long stay. The condo is very close to public transportation. In fact, we only used our car 3 times for some visits outside Vancouver. We would recommend this condo to anyone wanting a good Vancouver condo.

We have just recently stayed in this location, and it was everything we could ask for. Arrived by train very close to station easy access to everything condo was spectacular and clean, with all the amenaties of home. We were there for Canada day week, hosts Ken and Nancy had a nice binder put together with things to do, where they were, plus all activities for Canada Day for our family to do and see. Thank you for your hospitality and for such a comfortable place to stay it was very much apperciated by the four of us.

i stayed in june of 2011. Ken and Nancy were such gracious hosts. I loved being able to jump on the skytrain just around the corner and then the sky was the limit.. literally! went to a concert, went to river rock casino, shopped on robson, dined at joe fortes, bought breakfast and art at granville island market... i loved it! and the best part is, you dont have to drive and park anywhere! it doesnt get anymore convenient than this.. they have everything there, even beer, and coffee, complete with sugar and real milk.. the bed was comfy and there was a computer with wireless for guest use.... awesome!

This was our first experience with VRBO and Ken and Nancy have sure set the bar high! They are gracious hosts who make themselves available. All possible amenities are provided with nice little details including coffee, milk and a few drinks in the fridge on your arrival. Having bikes available is wonderful considering the close proximity to sea wall access. The location is also perfect. Downtown is a short walk away and the skytrain station a block away gives you access to the rest of the city. I'm afraid to try elsewhere now that I know how well a VRBO condo can managed. Big thanks to Ken and Nancy!

Perfect Stay in Vancouver

We had a truly excellent experience with this condo in Vancouver! Kenn and Nancy are the perfect hosts: friendly, helpful, low key, flexible (e.g., with the exact timing of our travel arrangements) and knowledgeable. It was fun to talk with them. The place itself was classy and well decorated. We would echo the positive comments made by earlier reviewers, but emphasize a few things still more. First, we didn't appreciate until we arrived how perfect the location is. The condo is only a block from the sky train, a kilometer (now I sound like a local) to major bus routes, and within an easy walk to major attractions such as Chinatown, Science World and the seawall. Second, the indoor swimming pool and exercise room in the bottom of the condo were great attractions for our teenagers, who used them every day. Finally, given a place such as this you really don't need a car. We had expected to rent one for at least a day or two but eventually opted not to do so; Nancy and Kenn indicated others had come to a similar conclusion. Vancouver is a great city, and the rental experience only made it better.

We can't say enough wonderful things about Kenn and Nancy and their excellent rental condo. Everything about the place is first class, with no detail overlooked. Despite a lengthy flight delay which resulted in an unanticipated 1 a.m. arrival, Kenn greeted us with such warmth and kindness that we immediately felt at home, and he continued to be terrificly helpful and friendly throughout our stay. (We wish Kenn and Nancy were our neighbors year round, to be honest.) The condo itself is wonderful -- large, airy, comfortable, secure, beautifully decorated, superbly equipped, and well located, with an excellent gym, pool, and hot tub. We thoroughly enjoyed our entire experience, from the first e-mail we sent until checkout, and will definitely make this condo our Vancouver home when we visit.
