Room was spaceous and nicely decorated with indigenous art. Friendly and helpful staff, nice facilities, comfy bed, conveniently located to transport and walkable distance to town - enjoyed our stay! Free savories and coffee from an indigenous brand were nice and expected - gave a great start into the day. Unfortunately, the hotel is located in a troubled neighbourhood, which can make you feel unease, especially at night. Nonetheless, would stay again.

The staff were very nice, the property itself was really nice. The only thing I didn’t like was the area in which the hotel is located. I did not feel safe walking back after the concert. This however is no fault of the hotel. I did not realize the area it was in, therefore my fault.

Cheap and cheerful place. Located near the unfortunate side of town but close to Gastown and a walk to the city centre. Friendly staff good for the price in Vancouver. Comfy bed.

I would stay here again. The room was really interesting and unique and was good value for downtown Vancouver. There was also a roof top garden and sauna. The staff were very friendly and there were baked goods available in the morning. It was also just a short walk from the bus stop. The only down side is that it is right on the border between a touristy area (Gas Town) and a rather sketchy area. However, it is easy enough to avoid the sketchy area by heading west out of the hotel for a block or so before going north towards Gas Town.
