An Easy 5 Stars!
Anyone who doesn't rate this place a solid 5 stars is either just having a bad day, or has lost their senses. For any solo guest or couple, this spot is a goldmine. I almost feel bad rating it so high for fear of it getting too booked up! The check in process is super easy, just a quick VRBO message takes care of it. The location is super secluded, quiet, safe, has a great view of the harbor, and right next to a pretty, local park! You are within 15 minute walking distance to a great little convince store and the BLVD Bistro (A+ there too) :) Ubers are always in abundance, and you are a mere 20 minutes from the Shipyards, downtown, and the Capilano Park. The unit itself is bigger and nicer than my apartment here in LA! You could literally live here. Two-person sized bed, tv, wifi, stainless steel fridge, stove/range, sink, toaster, desk, EVERYTHING! The bathroom was very clean and updated and the water pressure was even and got hot easily! I have absolutely nothing negative to report about my stay here. I never met the proprietor, but always had access to them and there were people in the main building, so I felt connected still. This was a perfect visit for me, PERFECT. I am a single dude, just in town to check out the Suspension Bridge, do some hiking, see the Harbor, get a tattoo, and have some brews over the (American) Labor Day Weekend! Thanks to VRBO and this spot, my first encounter of Canadian hospitality was second to none!

Misleading description and pictures
The property comes up as Entire Unit, but it's just a room, which is a really weird kitchen / sitting room / bedroom. One thing they do not properly state is that THERE IS NO BED! They have a pull out sofa and they place a mattress on top, which overhangs about a foot, btw. No to be totally fair, the place is NOT horrible, it's just that its deception is grossly misleading. If I had read a more accurate description of the place beforehand, I would not have picked it.

This property offered a clean quiet sleeping rest time after long days of adventures. Our host greeted us and made our stay pleasant. This property provides all you need while you were away from home. I HIGHLY recommend a stay to anyone who needs a place to rest their heads.

For short stay perfect place
Leonard was a great host, very helpful. The unit has everything's you need for 2 people. The couch bed was fine but couldn't figure how to turn it back into a couch. Parking is little tight but usable. Very quiet neighborhood. Would stay there again.

Extremely Disappointed
I thought the reasonable price was for the studio but unfortunately the pull out couch was uncomfortable without adequate bedding; the space had an awful mold smell, the kitchen was missing a real good scrub; the bathroom had been nicely remodelled (which was great). I left after the second night and asked to be reimbursed but haven't heard back from the owner. The cleaning fee is absolutely absurd. Extremely disappointed.

Decent accommodation for location and cost
The place was quite close driving to downtown Vancouver and to the places we wanted to go. Quiet and peaceful. Cleanliness overall was satisfactory - there were some cobwebs around but not bothersome. Found that the unit was missing some basic things such as a towel rack, hand towel holder, shower caddy, and curtains for window. We did not end up using oven or stove but appreciated that it was available. The check-in process was the only thing we were unimpressed with: we were not aware that the property had two rental units. When we arrived, we arrived at the same time as the other tenants - awkwardly staring at each other as they too were probably wondering why we were at their rental property. We put in the door code unknowingly to their unit and then was told that we were in the other unit. My only suggestion for the landlord is to clarify to future tenants about which unit they are staying in.

Cute little place with amazing views of the mountains
My best friend and I stayed here for a few days and it was the nicest place we stayed in in Vancouver. It had a kitchen, a very clean bathroom and Len was always helpful if we ever needed anything! The view when you walk out is really nice, you can see a peak of the mountains. Overall, this place was very nice and very easy to drive around as well!

I stayed here for a month while working in Vancouver. Leonard was a great host, the property was clean and had all of the amenities I needed for my stay. The area is very quiet and safe, with grocery stores and other amenities within walking distance. Highly reccomend this stay!

Feeling fleeced
Cleaning fees are set by hosts. VRBO allows fees to be very very high if hosts want them to be. VRBO doesn’t allow any reviews about these fees set by hosts. I recommend a close examination of these for any visitor to this place.

Nice, clean accommodations
Clean downstairs apartment with well-equipped kitchen, bathroom, and laundry. Pull-out couch is not the most comfortable to sleep on, but the listing is accurately described. Can get a bit warm in summer, since there is limited ventilation (one window), but there is also a fan. Location is close to walking paths and a park, and about 20 minutes to shops and restaurants. Host was communicative and helpful.

wonderful host and great value
Len was vary helpful at orienting me to the stores and transit service. The price for the place was excellent compared to other places in Vancouver. A screen door would add value because on hot days it was a little warm and the door would allow for a breeze which the fans could not sufficiently provide.
