Good hotel for the price, right next to the train station and a nice oub downstairs. Quite old rooms and common areas but overall ok. Area nearby is a little shady with some crack heads around, but if you are going just to and from the train station you should be fine. There's a 7/11 open 24/7 at the station but after 11 you can only buy through the little window. Would stay again if needed.

The location is excellent, but the property itself feels very dated and in need of a refresh. The carpet in the room was filthy, the coffee machine didn’t work, and the in-room microwave looks like it’s from the early 2000s. The staff were friendly and did their best to help, but unfortunately, the condition of the property puts them at a disadvantage.

Beds were comfortable. The room was clean . But the air quality was poor. You can’t open a window and there is no venting in the room except a very very loud old window air conditioner. Sleep was impossible.

This quaint looking old hotel was promoted as being refurbished and the pictures seemed to look like it. Our room was dirty with stains all over the carpet (I have pictures), and the cleanliness of the bed spreads was questionable, but the sheets seemed clean. We found dirty clothing stuffed between the ottoman and the desk when we moved it to put a suitcase on it. We paid for parking a block away in order to check in as there was no place to park in front or beside the hotel and after a horrible check in experience we had to haul our luggage from the parade across the street. We were afraid to walk anywhere because of the homeless shelter on the same block as the hotel with many of the patrons lying all along the sidewalk. To top things off we were stalked by an unsavoury character in his car while trying to park. After 3 attempts to park with him pulling in 2 spots away, I got out of my car and took a picture of his license plate. He then left. I would NOT recommend this hotel.

Our daughter left her $500 head phones in the room and they called us right after check out to come get them. This alone, for me, earns them a 5 star rating. Vishu, and the young Asian guy at the front counter were among the kindest people we met in Vancouver. And the hotel location is so convenient for the sky train.

From the old flossing pick behind the sink (the groove between sink and wall hadn't been cleaned in months at least) to mold on the tub tiles, the bathroom needs a complete overhaul. The roll down shades left gaps for light from the skytrain station to shine in. A noisy a/c unit was needed to offset the heat coming from the register, but it also helped to drown out the skytrain noise. The freezer in the mini fridge was so over-frozen that the door couldn't close. It was far from any of the described and quite a disappointment. The staff working that evening did her best, but I could tell she knew it wasn't great.

The hotel is conveniently located very close to the train station, which is ideal if you don’t have a car. However, the street where the hotel is located can feel a bit rough — you’ll see people using drugs around the area. That said, they mostly keep to themselves and don’t bother anyone, and there is also a visible police presence. If you can look past the street environment, the hotel itself is a good budget-friendly option. The rooms are clean, and it's a good place to get a decent rest. I wouldn't recommend it for families with children, but it's perfectly fine for adults who aren’t too picky. The front desk agent is friendly, and there’s a commercial area with everything you might need just a 10-minute walk away.
