Nice and tidy. Nice people. Breakfast contains mainly of sweet and unhealthy stuff + tee and coffee, but this is what people seem to love in North America. The kitchen is open after breakfast hours for tee and coffee and (concentrated) juices.

Attractions are very close from the hotel
May 25, 2015

The hotel is very close to all attractions. The max we had to drive was for 30 min to go to capilano bridge. The issue is they do not have bottled water in the hotel not even in the vending machine. Similarly the kitchen closes at 10 PM which becomes a challenge after a long day of travelling. Breakfast was better as it contains all good food but the breakfast room is small.

Great location, friendly staff, and good value for your dollar. I was disappointed with breakfast in that I'm a vegetarian and the eggs consistently had ham and bacon in them. I think many people are vegetarian or muslim and that there is no reason to not have these ingredients on the side. My room was very cold with no way to adjust the thermostat.

We spent two lovely nights here and were pleasantly surprised by this hotel. There have been a number of upgrades, including the beds, which really added to the overall experience. The outdoor courtyard is a lovely feature, even in the rain!! The breakfast is very good, although the breakfast room is quite small and it makes it difficult to accommodate many people at once.
