Gerne wieder, hatte einen schönen Aufenthalt.
Pros:

Personal war sehr sehr freundlich. Zentral an der Bushaltestelle gelegen. Weitere Haltestellen in kurzer Reichweite. Geschäfte auch gut zu Fuß zu erreichen.

Cons:

Wäsche waschen verhältnismäßig teuer. Da in Kanada kaum jemand bar bezahlt, war es ein Kampf 8 Loonies zu sammeln.

Glad we picked it
Pros:

We got this room on a discount. The room was great! We had a Keurig, a generous amount of outlets, a fantastic view, and plenty of room. We loved that the amenities were on different floors. It felt like we were able to get a 360 view of Vancouver during our stay! We also liked how close it was to downtown and the water.
Just a note, there weren’t any bathrobes in our room, but that wasn’t an issue for us.

Cons:

Jacuzzi was under maintenance!

Great location
Pros:

Great location for a flying visit to vancouver, nice comfortable room close to all amenities, short journey to Granville island and capillano suspension bridge

Cons:

Over bath showers with shower curtains ☹️ although I've realised this is quite the norm for Canada.

Great value for money for what I paid
Pros:

Had everything, good gym, restaurant, meeting area top floor and an affiliated restaurant. Rooms were a good standard. I think compared to other Vancouver locations based on price this was very good value for money.

Would stay again
Pros:

Great location, lovely foyer, very spacious room. Range of tea and coffee available in room. All the essentials (bed, surfaces, bathroom)appeared clean and tidy. Microwave and fridge available in the room for use too.

Cons:

Few minor things didn't quite work properly. For example, TV remote worked intermittently and only if held at a specific angle and the bath plug didn't seal so the water drained out constantly. Chip in the bath enamel and some other wear and tear made the room look a little tired.

Very good
Pros:

Staff was very nice and let us check in hours earlier which was great as we were very tired from our early flight. Location was great and close to everything and public transports. We didn’t use the amenities but I thought it was nice to have so many options. It was also quite silent during the night.

Cons:

The hot tub was not working and the bath tub/shower could be cleaner and up to date. Besides that everything was perfect and I would stay there again.

Nice hotel close in the heart of Vancouver.
Pros:

Staff were incredibly friendly and helpful - especially Minami who checked us in. Asked for some more coffee pods and front desk immediately sent up more.
Close to lots of big ticket locations in Vancouver including Granville island, Kitsilano, Robson street etc. Walking distance to Yaletown station (train stop for airport) and False Creek Ferry stop.
Some cooking facilities, large rooms, safe and secure hotel.

Cons:

On a pretty rough street which made walking home unpleasant at times. I would not walk alone around this area.
Rooms could do with an update and more thorough clean.

Buena ubicación y excelente servicio
Pros:

Buena ubicación, y el personal excelente !! Creo que fue el mejor que encontré en relación calidad precio en todo Vancouver, y la devolución del depósito fue muy rápida, en comparación con otros hoteles de Vancouver

Cons:

La habitación era la clásica 3 estrellas, pero el aire acondicionado en calefacción emitía un olor raro, como que no han limpiado las tuberías en años; lo peor fue la ducha al poner el agua caliente olía literal el agua a fierro quemado, debe tener instalaciones muy viejas. Y la ducha no tiene manguera por si usas bidé, no tiene.

A trade-off that's great if you get the right price
Pros:

The room included a fridge, microwave and safe plus a desk and chair as well as the bed. There was as entrance section. There were plenty of lights in the room. The bathroom was a little smaller but still with plenty of light. The lobby had water and the staff was nice. Transit is close by.

Cons:

While there wasn't much outside noise, the uncarpeted rooms and hallways made sounds transfer between rooms. This place isn't for everyone as the immediate area north on Granville can be seen as a little rough (but also includes lots on inexpensive places to eat!). While the place wasn't unclean, it gave off a light dinginess that less expensive Vancouver hotels seems to have. This is still a great option if you can snag a deal.
