With the ocean to the south and Vancouver's city streets running north, this is an apartment base for staying put rather than merely passing through.

You are choosing an apartment hotel on Vancouver's waterfront, with the city on one side and the sea on the other. The address suits a longer stay especially well: the property now focuses on stays of 30 days or more, so it is better suited to settling into Vancouver than to a quick overnight between flights.
The practical appeal is straightforward. You have a base by the water, a beach outside, and enough of Vancouver within walking distance to make the car less important. Information for the property is available in English, useful when you are arranging a stay in a city where the details matter more than the brochure language.
The address is 910 Beach Avenue in Vancouver, on the waterfront. The beach is directly accessible and sandy, with loungers and parasols for the time when your legs would rather not tackle another hill.
Sunset Beach, Granville Island Public Market and Yaletown–Roundhouse are close enough to form part of the everyday geography here. Granville Island is also useful in practical terms: its public market gives you ingredients for a proper meal, a simple supper or a barbecue. Stanley Park and the city's wider waterfront are natural choices for walking, cycling and looking at Vancouver from outside the traffic.

This is an apartment hotel, so the main question is not which room has the most decorative cushions. It is whether you want a base that works over several weeks, with the freedom to organise your own days and meals rather than treating the property as a conventional short-break hotel.
That matters after a day outdoors. You can return to the waterfront, put your feet up and decide whether dinner means a walk to one of the nearby restaurants or ingredients from Granville Island Public Market. The long-stay format also makes sense if Vancouver is one stop in a wider trip and you would rather unpack properly than live out of a case.
The building is strictly non-smoking. Wi-Fi is available throughout the hotel, while luggage storage and concierge assistance are useful around arrival, departure and the awkward gap between leaving the room and leaving the city.
The food story is mainly Vancouver's, not a hotel restaurant's. Several restaurants are within a short walk, giving you options when you have spent the day outside and want someone else to deal with the cooking.
For a more independent evening, Granville Island Public Market is the practical answer. Pick up what you need for a substantial meal, something simple or a casual barbecue, then return to your apartment and eat on your own timetable. That arrangement suits a 30-day stay far better than a fixed holiday meal plan.
A continental breakfast was part of the former service offer, but the property moved towards long-term accommodation and said that breakfast and housekeeping services could be limited or discontinued during that transition. Treat the market and nearby restaurants as the dependable part of the food plan.

The beach is the obvious first option: direct access to sand, with loungers and parasols when you want to sit by the water rather than turn the afternoon into another expedition. Boat excursions are also available in the wider offer, giving you a way to get back on the water without repeating the same view from the promenade.
For dry-land days, cycling and walking fit the location naturally, while wildlife observation and cultural excursions give you reasons to explore beyond the immediate waterfront. Granville Island and Stanley Park are named excursion options, and both work well when you want a proper outing without turning it into a logistical project.
There is also a modest fitness room with an exercise bike, treadmill and weight stack. It is enough for a straightforward session when rain, jet lag or a long day on foot has won the argument.
Your last day stays dry: no diving in the 18-24 hours before a flight, the perfect window to see the destination from another angle.
