Great spot to stay to enjoy the sights and culture of Vancouver!
Pros:

Spacious, airy room within walking distance of restaurants and other sites in downtown Vancouver. Bed was very comfortable and everything worked well in the bathroom. We didn't use the kitchen, but it looked like it was stocked for a simple meal in, if someone wanted to. Paid parking space was always available and made it safe to go to and from the hotel. We didn't speak to staff much but staff members always greeted us as we went out and came in.

Cons:

Nothing. Everything was wonderful!

Great location and clean facilities
Pros:

The apartment was very clean and the location was walking distance to a lot of restaurants and bars. It is in the LGBTQ area so if that is an issue for you, then this is not the place for you to stay.

Convenient location for a short stay
Pros:

The main selling point is that this hotel is its location. It's central, so you can walk to a lot of restaurants and points of interest around. The room was clean and quiet, we didn't have major complaints about it.

Cons:

The system of having to check in by inputing all sorts of information and scanning our IDs into an app I had never heard about felt shady.
Amenities were minimal, and the room felt a little old. We didn't really mind, but if you want something fancy, this isn't it.

Comfortable Home Away from Home
Pros:

I had a wonderful stay. The staff at the front desk were friendly and helpful. The apartment was clean and spacious. I loved relaxing on the velvet couch and looking out the large windows. The kitchen was just right for breakfast. The bed was comfortable and I slept very well. Although there was construction during the day, the nights were very quiet. I liked sitting on the balcony at night and looking at all of the lights. The location is great. It is a quiet street and, just a short walk away, there is a busy street filled with lots of restaurants, bakeries, stores, and a fantastic wine store. Walking to the beach was easy too. I highly recommend this home away from home.

Cons:

Although it is not their fault, there was construction noise close by during the day. Luckily it didn't start too early and ended around 4PM.

Good option for a business trip with a lot of late night food options around.
Pros:

Good location, I liked the self-check-in and the unit was really large. Larger than I expected even, with enough space to work and relax.

Cons:

It's supply and demand, but I happen to be in town during WebSummit so I ended up paying over $500 per night for a $250 per night hotel. At that price, it's always hard to swallow. The place was a bit run down and I wish there were mosquito screens so I could open the window without bugs and leaves flying in at night.
