Great location to enjoy Vancouver as a tourist. Although an older facility, it was well maintained. The staff was friendly and helpful and the onsite parking was very convenient. The balcony was a pleasant experience for an urban setting.

The hotel is on the west end close to the beach, restaurants and transportation, which is really convenient. The room had a weird smell coming from the AC, this was fixed by the staff as soon as we mentioned it. The rooms are not sound proof we were able to hear other rooms and the street

Room was very comfortable and clean. Literally steps from the ocean and sea wall. Close to restaurants. We had a dog with us and this hotel had an outside covered patio area that allowed us to eat with the dog present. Fantastic place to stay and very very enjoyable. The staff was extremely helpful and pleasant.
