Keefer House

Amazing place! Rooms were modern, well equipped with all the amenities you could want. Access and check-in/check-out were so smooth. Location was easy to access and close to everything you need.

The place was beautiful

Kitchen had everything, including several ways to make coffee. Nice lounge and big TV. Very convenient washer and dryer. Comfortable bed and good closet space. Nice bathroom. Excellent communication with staff

Keefer House is for people who want to feel at home while away from home. I was so impressed with how clean & stocked up the room was. The room was beautiful & comfortable. There is no front desk but Juan who works onsite was super helpful along with the remote staff who helped guide my stay. Can’t wait to stay at the Keefer House again!

This place might feel like it’s in a shady area, being near some parts of Chinatown with a large homeless population. But once you step inside you feel safe and in a luxurious space. The pictures of this place are incredibly accurate, so much so I don’t even need to upload photos to prove it. It feels like you’re living in a high end apartment in the city. With a fully functioning kitchen, a washer and dryer, and amenities easily found for cleaning I can’t say enough of how amazing this place was. I would definitely come back here again when I visit Vancouver once more. Also, though the staff were not physically present with a welcome desk or anything, they are very responsive and communicate well through emails and texts.

Super cozy place to stay! 100% coming back and recommend to others!!

Enjoyed my stay 👍

Absolutely fantastic!

We would recommend Keefer House. Clean, quiet, very comfortable bed. Our only negative comment is that due to the number of drug addicts we were not completely comfortable walking more than a couple of blocks but Keefer House was very upfront about the neighborhood beforehand. Some very interesting history to the building and parks nearby.

The rooms are great, no issues there. My issue is the 'self-check-in experience', as they put it. It is cold and impersonal, and even a bit scary in fact. The bots (I assume) respond immediately to text messages. But, there is no one in the building, except for an imposing security guard in a bullet-proof vest (he was nice though). Even though I had paid upfront, I had to re-enter my credit card at online check-in. Not only that, I had to upload a photograph of my passport and a selfie. Very likely, this will be sold to AI companies for their training algorithms. Expedia and other booking sites should include whether or not a hotel is run by bots and which personal information is needed for check-in.

We reserved a 2-bedroom apartment at Keefer House because it’s within walking distance to Rogers Arena, and a better deal than two hotel rooms. While the location is great for restaurants and pubs, we wondered about security after dark. We’re happy to say we felt very safe with the security measures in place. We loved the keyless coded entry to the facility, the elevator, and our apartment. The apartment itself was spacious with a huge modern kitchen, sparkling clean, and well appointed with all the appliances, including full sized washer and dryer. The free coffee beans were a nice welcoming touch. We didn’t miss the front desk of traditional hotels since our communication with our hosts by email was fast and efficient. The staff members are gracious hosts, to say the least. We enjoyed roaming through a part of Vancouver we’d never seen before. We hope to stay at Keefer House next time we attend an event at Rogers. Any down sides? Don’t expect a nice view if your unit faces the alley, but it’s relatively quiet away from street noise.

Excelent

Everything was exactly as advertised for a very reasonable price.

Was better than expected. Electronic check in with access codes worked very well. Would definitely stay there again

Everthing was great.Just bring coffee for morning if you have more than 3 guests as not enough coffee for 7 people provided.Everything else great.

Excellent apartment hotel with a fantastic suite layout, easy check-in and secure access. Good location to Uber key areas. Would definitely stay here again. Appreciated the helpful and immediate responses from customer service and their ability to accommodate an early check-in for me.

Will definitely be back, great bed, location is great for Rodger’s- fun bars nearby!

Very friendly owners and staff. Great location. Quiet and clean.

Excellent spacious apartment which is immaculate and clean. Keefer House provided superb facilities, and their staff all accommodated us and made sure we had everything we needed + more!

Staff, 24hr security and room were all excellent. Room was very clean and new. Water pressure in primary bedroom was poor however, and all guests had to use the hallway bath. Can't beat the price for the accommodations. Also proximity to the Keefer Bar was excellent. I'd highly recommend a stop there in the evening for drinks. Biggest issue was the number of homeless right outside the entrance to the hotel. Lots of visible drug usage when we arrived and over our balcony, back alley. That area near main and hastings is not great come to find out. Wish we had done more research on location before booking. Security did their best to keep it clear for guests. It is close proximity / walking distance to great shops and restaurants in Gastown and DT Vanc. Just head away from main/hastings.
