**I might have room for you. If this apartment is booked for your desired dates, check my other listing at the same building: http://www.airbnb.com/rooms/109145 **

We recently 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. It was Vancouver’s first skyscraper, then the first commercial building to be designated heritage. This apartment is on the 11th floor with sweeping views of the city.

Very convenient location. 20 minutes by transit 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, English Bay and Stanley Park. 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. Unlimited local calls. Plus entertainment area with a nice selection of DVD movies & music CDs. (Ken, my husband, is an arts critic.) The couch is actually a sofa-bed and can accommodate a third guest. This suite has heating and air-condition.

Fully equipped kitchen with microwave and dishwasher. Smoke-free environment. Free laundry on the same floor, spacious meeting room off the foyer, and gym and sauna in the basement. Parking for around $15/day close to the building. This is not a shared space - you have the place entirely to yourself. Linen, towels, hair dryer, iron and basic cooking condiments provided.
