Wonderful stay. So close to all the attractions we wanted to see.

Great location. Fun, funky atmosphere. Comfy room, complete with a kitchen.

I cannot speak about all the rooms here, but the one we stayed in was not sanitary. Both beds had questionable large areas of brown stains on the box springs and the odor when you open the door hits you so hard. Originally it smelt like the room had been soaked in urine mixed with pinesol. We thought maybe it was a reaction to something with the cleaner, so we opened the window, turned on the fans and left for 3 hrs. When we came back the odor was still there. We complained to the front desk but the hotel was full so they could not move us rooms until the next day. The front lobby and hallway did not have this smell, just when you opened our door. We tried leaving the door open and window open with three fans running to get rid of the odor but it did not go away. I had to be up at4am the next morning for a race so we decided to just try and sleep. I was very uncomfortable here and barely sleep. After my race they said a room would be ready at 3pm for us to move but was told it "may still smell as this is an old hotel" and they could give us an air freshener. We decided to check out early and find another hotel. I choose this hotel for the location not the ratings, but we barely spent more than 7 hours in our room because of the odor and dirtiness of the room. We didnt even want to sit in the chairs in the room. The staff did try to help the best they could but I do not believe anyone should be breathing that mysterious odor in......even if its a 2 star hotel.

Close to the beach. Kitchen.

The location was perfect… close to grocery store, drug store and Stanley Park. Having a kitchen was helpful but it is so close to so many great food options! The hotel is within walking distance of many attractions and public transit. It was old but roomy and clean.

Good for what it is. Inexpensive and close to lots of stuff

It was a nice stay for a good price, the building was looking a bit older but had great character and worked perfectly for our stay, so we were very happy with it!

Excellent location. It's an older hotel that they keep well maintained. I would stay again if given the chance.

Great location near the beach

Fantastic staff and clean room in this affordable hotel

Very convenient location, nice staff and clean rooms.

Good, Thanks!

Absolutely beautiful room; the layout, style, cleanliness, view, can’t say enough! Staff were very friendly and welcoming. Love love love this place.

Lovely beach view and convenient location, but pretty dismal other than that. Peeling paint, linoleum, and carpet; shower sprayed more water from leaks than shower head. . Furniture and linens all so dated and felt dirty. Lots of water damaged carpet in halls covered with plastic. Staff polite at check in but different staff member at check out burping so excessively, repeatedly and loudly that we could hear him from the third floor. Spend the extra $80-$100 and stay anywhere else!

Although the building is old the room was large and clean. From our room we could see English Bay. The location was good, many restaurants to choose from and the beach is almost 2 blocks away. A convenience store next door to pick up water or what have you. The only thing was we couldn’t park there because we had a large tahoe, they only had a few underground parking spots. We had to find a spot across the street in a impark lot. You were lucky if you found a spot because the area was very lively day and evening.

Good location, dated furniture, the location is next to the street so we can hear all the traffic noise. Other than that the staff explains clearly about parking, check out time etc.

Felt carpet smell suffocating
