Skwachàys Lodge

店舗兼ホテルの入口となっていて、多少分かり難さはありました。チェックインの際はスタッフが一名で対応してくれたので、駐車場を案内してもらう為に受付カウンターから離れるのに、玄関に鍵をしていました。バンクーバーは治安が悪いという理由から、少しでも離れる時は鍵をするのだと聞いて驚きました。部屋の造りが面白かったです。アメニティグッズは女性には嬉しいものでした。朝食付きも嬉しかったです。

A lively boutique hotel with very helpful and friendly staff. A very short walk to Gas town. Nice facilities, clean and a great not for profit organization.

The hotel itself had VERY cozy nice beds, a hot shower, friendly staff, and great decor. One con of the room itself, our window balcony overlooked sketchy housing and there was a screaming tenant at an early hour in the courtyard. However, AC drowns out most of the outside noise. At no fault of the hotel (which felt safe once inside), the surrounding area felt VERY unsafe… lots of homeless, drug addicts, street smells of fecal matter/pee, etc… Also, someone tried to break into our parked car and we only knew because half of the handle was broken off. Not an area to stay in if you’re a woman alone or with just girlfriends even. I don’t get frightened easily either, I’m from a large metro and have traveled to 30+ countries, some solo. All that to say, hotel itself is nice but I wish I’d known beforehand what a sketchy area this is in because it made the experience unsettling. Just want to share this for any future travelers to consider when booking.

Nice hotel

- Very cool native American art and decor. - We spotted a cockroach at the breakfast pastries and told staff. - There's a trimer on the wall we did not understand. I asked staff what it is. She simply said they do not go into the rooms and she did not know. No attempt to try to help or find the answer by calling anyone. Did not even want to see my photo. - Lack of hotel parking was very challenging. Staff gave us partial advice on where to park: both garages they recommended provide inadequate parking: one would only let us park until 6am. The other took our money to park until 8am but did not open until 10 am, delaying our departure from the city. One staff member offered us a parking spot in the evening but that turned out not to be accurate. Hotel management needs to provide complete written instructions so staff are not going from incomplete information.

This was an adorable boutique hotel. The area is a bit sketchy though with a noticeable homeless population. We had excellent service and the bed was very comfortable. Our room had stairs, so make sure you tell them if you have mobility issues.

Blood on the pillow case and sheets - when I asked for a change, I was provided with a new sheet and given a garbage bag to throw the stained sheets in. I changed the sheets myself. Explained to staff upon check out and was met with indifference rather than an apology. The room was covered in dust, with thick clumps of dust under the bed, in the corners and on the furniture. The location was sketchy, having to walk over and/or around many unhoused visibly using various drugs. Make sure you get an Uber or cab going to/from hotel. The staff was nice but clearly uninterested and ill equipped (with no onsite housekeeping at 4pm in the afternoon on a Saturday) in rectifying a very poor experience when it came to the cleanliness of the room. Moreover, the fact that the main issue was blood, I would have hoped there would be a deeper concern and response.

The hotel itself is nice, with friendly staff, a great lounge area and local art. However the area outside felt unsafe with lots of sketchy people - both day and night.

Nice rooms, clean, comfortable bed, beautiful art. Little support and presence from staff.

Such a great experience staying here, such lovely helpful staff. Really clean room and very comfortable bed! We will 100% be booking to stay here again anytime we have to go to the city! Will recommend to anyone and everyone!

Very unique rooms and very nice staff, 100% would stay here again

I would not stay in this hotel or area again. Staff was super friendly and efficient. The facility is old and nothing like the pictures. The area, unfortunately, is terrible.

The hotel itself was fine, very close to gas town. I write this review just to let others know that the area was unsafe.If you plan to be out after dark. It was a short walk to nicer areas, but if you plan to be out later , you need to take a cab or uber to the hotel. Especially if you're older.

Good place

2nd time staying here. Would highly recommend for concert and hockey games

The room was very nice and perfect for 2 people. I would stay there again if I had a male partner with me. I would not stay there alone. The area around the Hotel had many homeless people and/or drug addicts.

The room and facility was clean. The staff was friendly, but the rooms were not very big and there wasn't a lot of amenities for the price of the room. There was a very limited continental breakfast. There wasn't a pool or exercise facility and the room was pretty small.

Room was very nice. Staff were friendly and we had no issues even though it is in an area with some homeless people. Never bothered once. Would stay again.

The aboriginal arts

The place itself is stunning, great decor wonderful staff, clean and comfortable, the street is horrible but no fault of the owners!
