Lovely staff, I stayed in an apartment with a kitchen which allowed me to cook for myself. The views from the room were great. Great location too, especially for Stanley Park. Would highly recommend.

Room was nice. Check-in didn’t go well. The check in nearly rejected us from staying there because my credit card chip was malfunctioning. Room was paid and offered any other method of deposit but he insisted and finally asked my partner for her credit card. Then asked to see her ID for the card usage. Felt very insulting. Why not have a manual method or tap at least. Sending people away who have paid for the room seems unfair.

We were upgraded to a suite with full kitchen which was fully outfitted. The suite was very comfortable. Views over English Bay & Stanley Park were wonderful. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Parking was easy ($25/night). Only one nit: it’s a pet friendly hotel and the room next door had a yappy dog that wouldn’t shut up. (Fortunately it was quiet overnight or we would really have been pissed!)
