Average hotel

The hotel was clean although it has some funky smell in hallways and rooms. Breakfast is ok. Location is not so good. Lots of homeless people around.

Just an average hotel

I spent three nights in the hotel. PROS: -convenient location -staff was friendly, knowledgeable and helpful -room was clean. The furniture was simple and in good condition -the bathroom was in excelent condition -breakfast was fine CONS: -heat pump was a little bit noisy -little natural light in the room In summary, the hotel offers good value for the money but offers nothing out of the ordinary.

Great weekend trip to Canada

My friends and I live in Seattle and wanted to go to Vancouver, BC for the weekend. We chose this hotel as it was in a different part of downtown than we've been before. It was a great location near the Gastown area. The staff was friendly and welcoming. The walls were a little thin, but the room was very comfortable. Due to the location and price, I think we'll be back!

Nice Location and reasonable price

I spent 5 nights for a business trip in Vancouver, Canada. The hotel room was nice and clean, staff were polite, the price is better than other hotel in the area. The location of the hotel is walkable distance to the convention center, in a safe area and convenient to restaurants, shopping center, and train station etc public transportation stops. Continental breakfast was provided.

Not too far from the most attractive street, Robinson Street. In the night, Robinson street is very nice to shop.

Great choice for the busy traveller.

I really liked this hotel. Staff are great and rooms, while tiny, are adequate. Breakfast is included and will keep you going for a while. I was given early check in on request and was also given a room with a harbor view. The hotel was really well located- an easy walk to shops, Canada Place, Gastown. Make sure you go to La Tacqueria which is just around the corner- best tacos ever. Bangtown Hair Salon across the road is a great place for a haircut, too. You might see some people seeking shelter at a nearby Salvos, but they are not in-your-face panhandler types. Give them a smile and make their day! Excellent value, thanks Ramada for a really enjoyable stay in your beautiful city!

Go to La Tacqueria on Hastings! And you must try a Japadog, the Robson storefront is only a few blocks away.

Really good for the cost

I was very pleased with the hotel. At first look you might shy away from the location. But it is ok. Very close to bus transportation and good access to and from the train and bus terminal except very early in the morning but a short taxi ride. A little concerned at first by the description of roll in shower in the room but it is a fixed bathroom. Good continental breakfast, clean and comfortable room overall a very good stay for the dollar. Would recomend to friends and will stay there if I go through or visit Vancouver

We had a wonderful experience at this hotel. Great location, good staff and terrific value. The rooms must have been recently renovated because they looked like new.

Vancouver Ramada

The location is awesome. Very good proximity to the English Harbor, Gastown, The Vancouver Convention Center, etc. Very walkable area. The rooms? Meh. Plain, nothing special, but nothing bad either. The continental breakfast is okay, it was included, so no complaints there! If you're looking to spend under $100 in a world-class city, this is a good choice!
