ZINNIE, Vancouver

Liked: Staff & service
Disliked: Cleanliness
The location of the hotel was great. Just a 5 min walk to Kyoto station. The only thing is the cleanliness of the hotel. I booked two rooms. One of the rooms had bread sitting above the fridge which I assume it was left behind from the previous guests. Second, the hardwood floor was dirty with oil stains and smudges. The cleanliness can be improved and avoided. Disappointed.
