Amazing cultural experience. There's a popping bar downstairs too, so you don't have a far way back after a few drinks! It's centrally located, near trains and buses, if you do go further. Roberto at the front desk is a real sweetheart; he's there to help with anything you'll need. Even if it's just to chat, or lock yourself out like I did. The hotel cats are sooo cute and nice to play with. The kitties really make Cambie feel like home! I can't wait to see them again!

Rooms were a tad small but perfect for what I needed. There was a cockroach in the hallway by the cats. Bathrooms are tiny and low water pressure. But overall it wasn’t horrible
