I always book this hotel for a sea/beach view and for my leisure or break from activities and work. A few minutes walk to the beach.

The staff was friendly and helpful and for the price the location was close to the water and the event we were attending. The room didn’t feel dirty but didn’t really feel clean either. Probably could use some maintenance and TLC ad there were holes in walls, water damaged baseboards and filled holes that have never been painted. Fabric on the chairs had holes as well as peeling paint created questions about how much attention the rooms actually received. I would probably stay again if I needed an economic option in downtown Vancouver but it wouldn’t be my first choice.

This is my third stay here and I intend to keep doing so in the future. It is what it is for the age of the building and the price. The staff are always helpful and efficient. In fact, the manager came to my room at 9pm to fix a leaking shower simply because I mentioned it to the front desk clerk.

This hotel is all about expectations. Sure the decor is tired and it badly needs a renovation BUT it’s very reasonable with friendly staff and clean beds and bathrooms. We stayed after a concert and checked in just before midnight. The food options next door a good affordable street food that’s open late and very friendly. All this means that we had a fun stay and really appreciated the hotel for what it is, thank you.

I always felt uncomfortable I left my luggage after check-out and I asked them if I should write something so that they could make sure that’s my luggage when I came back for it. But he said “No you don’t have to do anything” And when I came back there there was a different person. I asked him to get my luggage back. Although he didn’t recognize me, he just said “Go ahead”. What if other people asked him to get my luggage? He had no idea whose the luggage was so he would give my luggage. And it’s not clean and dark. Elevator is sucks
