The stay has been good up to last night. Two intoxicated women at 2.30 in the morning came up to there room. Kinda looked like the street girls. I'm sure they had the whole floor awake. Not sure why the front desk aloud them up to there room. Called for security but did come.

Hidden gem in English Bay.

Fast friendly check in - room was large and clean with nice modern furnishings and a very comfortable bed - shower temperature not warm enough. Check out was a breeze. We would stay again for sure.

Location is great, staff was nice, lots of dining options that are walkable and coffee right outside. Rooms have been updated nicely but the building itself is just rundown. Biggest complaint is the outdated windows, the outside noise is so loud, people, cars, etc you can hear everything! kept me up all night.

Terrible organization, avoid if possible

Terrible experience checking in. They gave my room to someone else not authorized by me and then tried to charge me extra to check in for “another” room. So disorganized and rude

Decent location, price is fair. Staff was nice. Parking was a nightmare, room was average. The walls were so thin we could literally hear the guy in the room next door cough all night. Not totally hotels fault but also not a great experience.
