Great location, with incredibly friendly staff that went out of their way to help with whatever we asked. Can't say enough good things. Rooms were clean and comfortable. Would definitely stay here again.

Great location to explore Vancouver

Pros: Location
Cons: General face lift.
Location: Beach, fantastic park, wide range of restaurants
We were slightly hesitant when we booked here as there were a wide range of reviews, some not very complimentary. We stayed a week and were pleased we did. The location is superb, backing on to Stanley Park - considered one of the best parks in the world. The hotel is two minutes from the beach, and the street it is on is awash with restaurants offering a wide variety of cuisines. Our room was large and quite well appointed. The furniture was a little tired but OK. The fittings in the bathroom were very tired, especially the mirror and cupboard over the basin, but there were plenty of clean, large towels. The kitchen, which we used quite a lot, also was in need of a face lift, together with the crockery some of which was chipped. However, it was well equipped with fridge, microwave, toaster, stove and coffee machine. There was an unlimited supply of coffee grounds. All in all, given the cost in a major world city, we thought it was good value. One drawback is that there is a high rise apartment block being built outside the room we had. Noise was not a problem, but if we go again we will ask for a room on the other side as the apartment ,when finished, will look right into the bedrooms.
