We had never been to Vancouver before, but it was on the bucket list, and I’m so glad we were able to stay at Rick’s Place for our 10-day visit. The location is superb: minutes away from the Granville Restaurant district; close access to the Aquabus across to Granville Island and the Public Market; a short walk across the bridge to the Island, lots of shopping and Kitsilano; a few blocks from the Seawall for a beautiful walk to either False Creek or up to Stanley Park. Rick and Vi responded in world record time to our inquiry and were in regular communication to make sure we had everything we needed for a pleasant stay. The apartment is fully equipped with everything you need to make wonderful meals from the food you pick up on Granville Island or the nearby Choices market. Vancouver is a wonderfully walkable city, and even with some cold and rain we covered a 5-mile radius of the condo (many times!) and visited so many of the terrific points of interest available. Our favorite restaurant was the Twisted Fork and there’s a cool Improv comedy club on the Island. There’s still a lot we couldn’t get to and we hope to be able to stay at Rick’s Place again when we return!
Owner's Response: Wonderful, that you enjoyed yourselves! Have a great summer, Vi & Rick

Great location

5 of 5

We were in Vancouver for a few days and wanted something more comfortable, and affordable, than a hotel. We rented Rick's Place and it was great. Not knowing the city at all we found it very easy to find our way around from this location. A walk along the sea wall to Yaletown was easy and fun, especially at sunset. The trolley bus picks up a block away. The condo is clean, comfortable and well equipped. We definitely recommend this for a comfy stay in the city.

Owner's Response: Thank you...we love walking the sea wall at sunset as well!
Glad you enjoyed your stay. Vi & Rick

Anniversary Weekend

Submitted: August 14, 2012 Stayed: August 2012
My wife and I booked Rick & Vi's Place for a short anniversary weekend in Vancouver, and what a time we had! The condo is very clean, and fully stocked with everything you could need. It is in a very convenient location, and walking distance to most everything downtown. Our last night there, we were even able to watch Vancouver's Festival of Lights fireworks from our balcony, which, happened to be bursting over English Bay! The perfect end to a lovely weekend! Thanks Rick & Vi!!!

First off, the location of Rick's Place couldn't be any better. You can easily walk or ride bike to just about anything worth seeing downtown. The Greyline bus picks up right around the corner too.
We did a "dinner walk" each night since the wweather was so good, we walked to Gastown each night. The Steamworks Brewery was particularly good to us -- Awesome food, beer and service. Just down the hill from the unit and right on Pacific is a bike rental shop. From there, its 30 second ride to enter the bike path that takes you all the way to Stanley Park. We spent an whole day on the paths and trails at Stanley Park. If you like riding bikes, you will be in heaven. This is a must do for anyone able to pedal a bicycle. I would go back to Vancouver just for that outing!

The exterior of the building is a little dated, but once inside it is very clean and secure. We enjoyed the gym and the laundry facilities. The interior of the unit is nice with upgraded kitchen and water views of False Creek just down the hill. The outside deck was also great to relax with a cocktail. We all had a great time in this wonderful city and we would definitely rent Rick's Place next time we go. Thumbs up

Excellent Condo in Vancouver West End

5 of 5
Submitted: July 17, 2012 Stayed: June 2012
I'm not long-winded so I'll keep this brief. This is an excellent place to spend time in Vancouver, as well as a very good value. The unit is very clean and comfortable, and the kitchen has very high quality appliances, dishes, and pans. Having underground parking was also a big help. You are three blocks from the water taxi, and therefore 10 minutes away from Terra Breads and Lee's Donuts in Granville Island. Our only complaints - the front window was damaged and needed to be repaired (this was explained when we arrived), and the can opener doesn't work. Yep, a non-functional can opener is really the only negative I can think of with this unit. We had a great time here (rent bikes @ JV Bikes!) and I'd be happy to come back.

Owner's Response: Hi Doug, thanks for the heads up about the can opener...will have it replaced shortly. Glad you had a nice visit. Thank you, Vi & Rick
