Tasty Breakfast, Helpful Staff, Room Can Be Noisy

The room we stayed in was almost directly above the pub, so it was very noisy until 10 p.m. The staff were friendly and did their best to meet our needs during our stay. The breakfast was excellent and impressive.

Perfectly mediocre

Visited for the weekend, 2 adults and our teenage son. Friendly front desk staff and housekeepers. Fantastic location, especially for Stanley Park and waterfront access. Vibrant area with lots of restaurants, etc to choose from. Hotel was fine. Everything is dated and perfectly mediocre - it is a Best Western after all. Beds and bathroom were clean. Room had a fridge, microwave, and coffee maker - what more do you need for a quick trip to Vancouver. Decent parking, especially for in the city.
