Struttura rinnovata comoda
Pros:

Stanze nuove, veramente carine! Dotate di tutto il necessario in spazi ristretti. Pulite. Grande la doccia! Posizione ottima!

Cons:

Il bagno suddiviso è solo in apparenza comodo, toglie spazio e il porta asciugamani messo dal lato del wc è scomodo. Unico con porta scorrevole sarebbe stato più spazioso e funzionale, ma ci si adegua!

Habitación pequeña y buena ubicación
Pros:

La habitación era moderna y acogedora. Estuvo bien para una noche, la cama estaba cómoda y tiene un escritorio.
Tiene una buena ubicación, cerca de restaurantes, tiendas, cafés.

Cons:

No tienen ascensor.
Sonó la alarma de incendios a las 6am, despertando a todo mundo y resultó que se activó por error.

Excellent séjour malgré les incommodités légères notées
Pros:

Situation idéale dans le downtown de Vancouver. Hotel de taille humaine superbement rénové. Équipement agréable. Superbe salle de bain. Propreté. Proximité de nombreux restaurants (asiatiques)

Cons:

Chambre assez petite mais confortable et agréable. Comme d’habitude du fait d’une réservation via Booking: vue sur un parking.

Perfectly acceptable
Pros:

Location was really nice. Room was super big and clean enough. Staff was very nice and easy to communicate with. Price was pretty reasonable for a night of a high-demand concert.

Cons:

Honestly you get what you pay for. The bed was comfy enough but the room was a little dingy and not super well-kept but I wouldn't describe it as dirty.

We knew there was construction but that was not the issue. There was deep base music pounding consta
Pros:

We did not get breakfast.

Cons:

The room had no nightstand, I had to climb into bed from the bottom because the room was too narrow to walk beside the bed. We were severely scolded by a real jerk for trying to enter from the back door. It was inconceivable to me how you can charge $300/night for such a crappy, dirty, noisy room. I have stayed at the Barclay many times. It was never this bad. There was a black hair and full of hair on the floor. The floor was filthy.

Clean and comfortable stay in the down town.
Pros:

The location was ideal for us, as we were catching a cruise the next day and we were able to walk to the terminal in 20 - 30minutes. The staff were friendly and helpful with information. Even though the facilities are undergoing renovations everything was clean, well kept, and was quiet.

Cons:

Nothing.

Satisfaisante.
Pros:

l'hotel est tres bien situé. Mais pour le prix la chambre n'était pas assez éclairee - fenetre trop petite. La propreté
n'était pas au top. J'ai dû faire nettoyer avant de m'installer.......

Cons:

Qu'on ne me donne pas une chambre mieux éclairée.

Werewolf tag is great
Pros:

We liked the interesting layout of the room and the spacious design let us enjoy our own spaces when other hotels would feel much more compact, also good for werewolf tag.

Cons:

The renovations made finding our way though a bit confusing
