Super outdated BUT the room was super spacious and I genuinely felt safe given the state of the building. I was grateful as the other locations in that area were 3x the price. It had an AC unit, full sized fridge.

We had an amazing stay here! The place was absolutely spotless and incredibly clean from top to bottom. I loved that the kitchen came fully stocked—it had all the utensils, pots, and pans we needed to cook our own meals, which was a huge bonus. Best of all, it is just a short, easy walk to the beach. Perfect location, beautiful accommodations, and everything you could possibly need for a great vacation. Will definitely be back!

I stayed here for 3 nights and had no issues during my stay. The room was clean and included a kitchen, which was convenient. I had limited interaction with the staff since I was out exploring most days, but the front desk was always staffed and I felt safe as a solo female traveller. The rooms are a bit dated, but the location and price made up for it. Everything I needed was within walking distance, making it a great option for either a short or longer stay.

Nicely located hotel at the English Bay. The room/suite was spacious enough for our party of five. However, it was a bit run down, with the appliances and installations in need of some maintenance. Moreover, there was a lot of noise from the street and the windows were paper thin. I guess the price is fair for central Vancouver, but still, with a bit more care and overhaul the place would definitely be more welcoming.
