We just bought this charming little apartment at downtown Vancouver. The Electra, the old BC Hydro company building from 1957, was renovated and adapted to residential in 1995 but retains the modernistic charm of the '50s. This apartment is on the 11th floor with sweeping views of the city.

Very convenient location. 20 minutes by cab from the airport, a quick and fun ferry ride away from Granville Island. You will be able to walk to many attractions like the Vancouver Art Gallery. Restaurants, supermarket, drugstores, and a brand-new YMCA are all close by.

There's a computer already set up, complete with monitor, laser printer and unlimited hi-speed wireless internet. Plus entertainment area with a nice selection of DVD movies & music CDs. (Ken, my husband, is an art critic.) The couch is actually a sofa-bed and can accommodate a third guest.

Fully equipped kitchen with microwave and dishwasher. Unlimited local calls. Smoke-free environment. Free laundry on the same floor, spacious meeting room off the foyer, and gym and sauna in the basement. Parking for $10/day close to the building. This is not a shared space - you have the place entirely to yourself. Linen, towels, hair drier, iron and basic cooking condiments provided.

We charge a one-time cleaning fee of $50 per booking (not per night or week).

This place was AMAZING and Lili was a fabulous host. I really can't rave enough- the apartment is modern, clean, and I could happily live in it full time. Lili provides everything you could want- there are dvds and cdswe , a flat screen tv, a computer with free internet, free laundry, laundry detergent, a full functioning kitchen, coffee, tea, snacks- really, it's just wonderful. Lili is friendly and helpful- she made a '3 days in Vancouver' guide and everything was such a great suggestion- it really shapped our trip. I give it an A+++ and wish I could go back!

What a great place! The apartment has great city views, is centrally located and has everything we needed. It is clean, attractive and the huge windows make it very appealing. Lili was extremely helpful and gave us great tips for exploring Vancouver during our stay. We had a great time and would definitely book this apartment again. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

This is a fantastic suite with a great layout that is a dedicated rental so it has everything one could need for a short or long term stay. Lili and Ken are terrific hosts and genuinely made me feel at home in every way. The location is ideal if you like to be in the center of the action as it's downtown. There is a supermarket across the street which is very handy. The only drawback to the location is traffic noise as the suite is located at a busy intersection. I would be happy to stay here again and will recommend it to my friends.
