'Not a room': This $850 rental in Vancouver is just a sofa bed in the living room

If privacy isn't that important this might be for you.

With rent continuing to increase around the Metro Vancouver area, cheap options are few and far between, especially in the downtown core.

If privacy isn't that important, then this $850 space that's shown up on Facebook Marketplace might be an option.

The ad notes it's "not a room" but instead a tenant would be renting the sofa bed in the living room. Photos show an apartment living room with a simple foldable futon situation; no privacy screens are set up in the photos or mentioned in the ad.

The living room also opens onto the kitchen.

The building itself is a tower near BC Place, with Costco nearby, and has amenities like a pool and sauna, the ad notes.
