The hotel was really comfortable, the staff very friendly and of course, the location was top notch (one block away from English Bay and a lot of restaurants around).
Verified review

6/10 Good

The hotel was quite tired looking and ready for a refurbished. We stayed on a Saturday night and because of the old style windows without double glazing we found it quite noisy. On a positive the room was a good size and the bed was comfortable. Despite having paid for breakfast in our hotel price we chose not to stay as the breakfast was served in a sports bar with very few staff.

It was a great stay for one night to attend the World Cup. The exterior of the building could use an update but the interior of the rooms are renovated tastefully, the bed was extremely comfortable and the room was nice and quiet. We would definitely stay here again.
