Had an amazing stay! Room was lovely and the staff were very helpful. Location was also amazing. The only issue we had was with finding the hotel and parking. Maps wouldn’t give a precise location and we were very confused about the parking situation. Staff helped explain to us and we got sorted out but I think having instructors when you book a room would be very helpful and avoid confusion!

What a lovely hotel, very clean quiet and comfortable. Staff were all friendly and helpful. Fantastic central location just a short walk from all the shops in Robson St. and there’s also a great supermarket Starbucks and The Keg steakhouse directly opposite. We even made use of the guest laundry and gym on Level 3

The room was bigger than expected and had a full kitchen. This would be an excellent place to stay for more than one night for the space and kitchen. View was great. The bed was not - very very hard bed with the crunchiest sheets I’ve ever had in a hotel. Staff was pleasant and helpful. Parking was confusing and expensive. They have a secured parking area within the parking garage. You have to park in the temporary hotel spots (which we missed) and check in, then move your car to the secure area with a gate. I think we could have parked in the regular garage area for $30 vs $38 but the hotel staff was saying we would get a ticket? I think maybe she was saying we would get a ticket if we didn’t pay? It was confusing. We ended up paying the $38 which did have in and out privileges. Area felt safe and walkable with tons of shops and restaurants. Overall it’s a little expensive for having little to no amenities, super uncomfortable bed etc. but it was a good stay and don’t regret it.

Gorgeous apartment…we had a lovely 3-night stay and wish it were longer. Front desk was friendly and helpful. Apartment had everything we needed and nice city views…they even still do daily housekeeping although we didn’t need anything during our brief stay. Easy access to Robson St and the whole downtown area with no need to drive. As others have mentioned…parking garage has quite low ceiling so prob no big SUVs/Trucks. Would definitely stay here again.

We loved our stay! The location was perfect—surrounded by coffee shops, restaurants, and a market for groceries. The room was ideal for sharing with another couple, with two bedrooms and two bathrooms. We parked our car for the entire stay; although there was a parking fee, it was worth it for the convenience of being able to walk everywhere. We would definitely stay here again.

The room was nice and comfortable. Great view of the surrounding building.s. Unfortunately we had been traveling 20 hours and didn’t realize the AC did not work. It was 78 degrees in the room which made for an uncomfortable night. The next day service tech showed up, and spent 2 hours trying to repair the unit so no privacy while he was there. He was unable to complete the repair but did give us two fans. and luckily the windows opened for some cooler air. For the price we paid it would have been nice if the manager could at least addressed the issue and apologized for the inconvenience

The fire alarm went off at Midnight and everyone had to go down the exit stairs to outside. We were on the 16th floor! False alarm, no apology from the hotel staff! No offer of any kind of comp! Which they totally should have done! We didn't get any rest that night! I'm sure no one did.

朝食ビュッフェは無くて、若干古さを感じますが、ダウンタウンの真ん中にあり、ロケーションが最高に良い３５建のホテルです。部屋が広々していて清潔感があります。キッチンも広くて、電子レンジや大型冷蔵庫のほか、食器類も一通り揃っていて便利です。２２階の部屋でしたが、書斎造りのテラス室からは、ロブソン通りの商店街の賑わいが眼下に見え、市街の南側半分も遠くまで見えて、長い時間をゆったりと楽しむことが出来て、そのおかげで資料の作成も順調に進みました。次回の宿泊検索でも、選択優先順位の高いマンション的なホテルだと思っています。
