The room was nice, however the AC window unit was loud and so was the noise from the street. The staff was friendly & helpful. 5 stars for them. Breakfast was great. The portions were quite large and personnaly would have liked to see more lighter/smaller options.We enjoyed our stay and the location was great.

Excellent location, near everything in the area. Room was a little small, AC was loud, outside noise kept us up. The elevator was outdated and one of them was out for our entire stay. Staff was wonderful and room was clean. I would be on the fence to stay there again.

I had a “mountain view” which is really a parking lot, a lot of high rises and a slice of mountains. The location was perfect, a short walk to English Bay, the Sea Wall, transit accessible, a lot of grocery stores, little cafés.

6/10 Good

The hotel is in a great location as it is close to restaurants, the beach and Stanley Park. The rooms are very small but clean and comfortable. The bathroom is very tiny. In regard to fire safety the hotel is very out of date and dangerous. It is not sprinklered, and detection is very old and limited. The room doors do not have the automatic door closing devices required by the Building Code, which are required to stop fire spread. This is a major safety deficiency. I am very hesitant to stay here again, as a result.
