Arrived at approx 6:20pm. Was given an Accessible room at check-in which was realized when went to assigned room. Went back to front desk and explained I did not want room designed for Accessibility. Check in clerk was condescending and not very helpful. Was then given another standard room (as reservation was meant to be when booked). Why check-in person did not give this room at outset when I arrived is very questionable and a blemish. This is why rating given is poor/terrible.

We stayed at the Granville Island hotel and paid a premium price for nothing better than any economy based hotel. You could not get a coffee in the restaurant unless you did the luncheon buffet, no complimentary services, limited guest parking, The rooms are extremely small and when they a balcony room it too is so tiny I challenge anybody to sit on it. We will not be going back
