Great location, with good size rooms well designed. However, rooms do have issues. Outlets on desks, lamps and others around the room were not working from overuse. Exhaust fans that would not turn off was a issue for the 2 rooms we had. Staff was excellent and helpful, but during our 3 day stay no one came to fix the exhaust fans although I complained on the first day. In high price Vancouver this is good priced hotel.

The front desk attendant who is paid to serve guests told me to leave or he will call the police and that he is cancelling my booking. My booking was prepaid. There was no one in sight who could be a witness. I was denied service. Never has any accommodation anywhere in the world denied me service or threatened to call the police on me. He also repeatedly kept saying my credit card numbers out loud even after I repeatedly asked him to stop. The Manager who I spoke to in the morning did not provide an appropriate or reasonable remedy. He asked if I will return to stay there.

I was charged in USD when I'd booked off of a link on google maps and it was toggled to CAD. Parking was not included despite it being maybe a 3 star hotel max. The room was tiny and the bathtub had a bunch of hair in it that wasn't mine. They were also supposed to have an open hot tub and it was closed. Definitely not worth an almost $300 price tag. Outside there was also garbage so I wondered what kind of area it was in.

Lovely stay

We enjoyed our stay, actually let us check-in 4 hours early, and they upgraded us to a King room for free. Only complaint about the room was that the USB ports on both sides of the beds weren't working (room 10/12). The hotel is within walking distance of the cruise terminal and for Granville island. As other people have stated, there are a lot of homeless in the area, so recommend not walking out alone in the evening, just stay alert.

I am very disappointed with this hotel. It was very well rated on your site and I was confident by the reviews you posted that it would be a great hotel. The first night, our toilet broke, would not flush. The hotel staff told us there was nothing they could do, no maintenance at that time. When explained to them that it was unacceptable they offered us to use the public toilet in the group room on the PH, we were on the 3 rd floor. That was not acceptable as I was not going to allow my daughter to go upstairs by herself during the night to go to the washroom. I was then told that it was working when we arrived so it was my fault it was broken! Not once did the staff say they were sorry for the inconvenience. Finally they gave us a key to a room on the same floor to use the washroom. The toilet was only fixed at 5 pm the day after! I asked to speak to the manager, he was not available. I left him 2 messages over 2 days which he never replied back to me. The second day the TV and blow dryer did not work. The room was not cleaned for 3 days till I finally tracked down the manager. He said he would waive the parking fee for us but only if I did not leave a bad review! I had no flushable toilet for 18 hours! Finally on our last night, they cleaned the room and gave us new towels and emptied the garbage. Also both lamp shades in the room were ripped, hallways were dirty and smelt terrible. I would like some feedback from Expedia on this matter.
