The location was in the heart of downtown and close to many restaurants. It was nice place to spend the night after exploring Buschart garden and royal BC museum. The staff was very polite and attentive. There was parking shared with a car rental just steps away. The inside of the hotel was nicely updated. The beds are comfortable.
