Great place, neighborhood has fallen on hard times
The apartment was really lovely with a nice balcony and one ample bedroom. The second ‘bedroom’, where our 17 year old stayed, was abut the size of a twin bed and had no ventilation. It was fine for one night but not ideal. The problem lies with issues beyond the control of the owner and I hate to mention it here and downgrade the rating, but feel obligated to share with possible renters the fentanyl crisis has landed in Vancouver, and this apartment is in the epicenter. I say this as a Portlander, no stranger to homelessness and the ravages of fentanyl. It was bad enough that we took an Uber home from a restaurant rather than walking the seven minutes’ trip to avoid literally dozens of street sleepers in the throes of extreme human misery, and dealers circling on bicycles like vultures. Really sad.

Adorable one bedroom, very clean. Slept very well, easy to walk to restaurants or market. Also an easy taxi/Uber to the cruise dock or float plane dock. Best of all host is quick to answer questions and provide recommendations. Host also assisted us with storing luggage before checking in because of our crazy flight schedule. Very much appreciated!

Best VRBO Stay EVER
Our stay at Ruby’s Vancouver flat (just minutes away from port) before a cruise was absolutely fantastic. She gave exceptionally detailed directions for every single step of the stay, from check-in to check-out. When our train was delayed she remained awake in order to ensure we had room access, and was exceptionally communicative. The apartment is well-appointed and quite lovely. The secret bedroom off the kitchen was a great place for our teen to land for our stay. Views of the city are fantastic, and the balcony is the perfect place to eat breakfast before checking out the city. Nearby amenities (grocery, train access) make this a can’t-miss place to stay.

Neither Charming nor Romantic
My wife and I were looking forward to a romantic four days in Vancouver. The listing doesn't accurately capture the reality we experienced. BE AWARE, the neighborhood is ridden with drug-impaired and homeless folks roaming the streets and camping near the property entrance. Livingston Park, the "nature in close proximity" described in the listing, has been taken over by addicts and is unsuitable for enjoying nature, let alone walking your dog. From the property's lobby, we could see makeshift tents. Across the street, the Rexall Drug had windows boarded up from being busted. The "city views from every room" provides a bird's eye view of the dystopia below. After the first night, we decided to leave. We messaged the host to let her know we would depart and requested a refund for the remaining three nights. The host stated that homeless folks are "everywhere" and suggested we "give the place another night" because "as the policy states, there are no refunds available." After returning from breakfast only to find paramedics treating a drug victim directly behind our vehicle and human feces on the sidewalk, we would not stay a second night. After touring the city we realized the apartment is in one of the worst downtown neighborhoods. There are numerous less-priced dog-friendly four-star hotels with air conditioning in better neighborhoods. Overall, the apartment is adequate but overpriced given its location, 3-star furnishings and linens.

Overnight stay with family
The apartment was clean. The detailed instructions the host gave us were very helpful. Great place to stay for one night. The other “bedroom” is just a converted closet. But is fine for a kid. Could have used some bigger fans, as there was no AC and only 2 very tiny night stand fans were provided. Could have used a couple extra towels, esp since there is a pool there. There were only 4 provided and we had 4 people. The towels were extremely small and had a strange smell to them. Overall the place is clean, accommodating and walking distance to a lot of places and I would stay there again. It was rather noisy outside at night but that is to be expected in downtown Vancouver. I brought earplugs and a sleeping mask to be prepared!

Great City Pad
This place was a really great find. We spent three days in Vancouver and it was the perfect spot to wind down after a loaded two-week campervan trip. The location provides great access to the Gastown area and the apartment is really delightful, with great views of the city, a bit of water, and the mountains. It also has everything you need to feel comfortable for a longer stay, including a full kitchen, washer/dryer, good internet connection, etc. As is often the case, the "kid's" room feels like a bit of an afterthought (very small and no windows or deco to liven it up), but we were all thankful that our son didn't have to resort to sleeping on a pull-out sofa in the middle of everything, so no complaints! The check-in process was a bit complex due to the security measures of the building, but Ruby did a good job of explaining everything in her communications. Her responses were also quick and friendly whenever we had any questions. All in all, we recommend this place without reservation and wish future tenants a great stay!

Worst vacation rental experience ever
We arrived after the check in time, had communicated our arrival time with the host, and the host was not reachable for almost an hour. After travelling for 15 hours, all we wanted was to get into the apartment. While we waited outside with all of our luggage in front of the building, we were surrounded by people shooting up drugs, passed out, or yelling and fighting. I have never felt so unsafe in my life. We finally gained access with the help of VRBO to be disappointed by an average apartment. for the price, I expected more - there was no AC, the kitchen pantry was converted to the 2nd bedroom and you couldn't open the door completely without hitting the bed, there was one folgers coffee pod for 3 people. There was open food left in the fridge from prior guests. We were kept up all night by yelling and police and ambulance sirens. Please do your homework on the neighborhood if you book this apartment and know what you are getting into - nothing about it was pleasent.

Beautiful Apartment in a Well-Kept Building and Great Location!
We stayed one night at Ruby's, prior to going on an Alaskan cruise out of Vancouver. The apartment was in a nice location, in walking distance to many restaurants and the park, and a short distance to the cruise terminal. The building was very secure and we felt very safe in it. The apartment was beautifully decorated and very clean. We felt right at home! The building has a nice outdoor garden area, indoor pool and workout room. The apartment had all of the amenities we could have needed. It was quite hot in Vancouver when we visited, so the one thing that we did wish we had was a ceiling fan in the bedroom. But otherwise, we had a great stay and we would stay here again!
