I’m really surprised by the exceptional reviews. This hotel is in major need of a renovation. The rooms are small and quite old. The gym leaves a lot to be desired: there are two very old treadmills, a bike, a rower and an elliptical. There are minimal weights and the hot tub is not inviting. The location is convenient and I enjoyed being steps from the Granville market but I would not choose to stay here again.

I have stayed at this property many times and this time I was disappointed because the front desk staff was not friendly and did not recognizing my online checkin. He did not give me my VIP amenities. Disappointed because I pay premium to stay at this property.

Can’t beat the location but the hotel is very dated. Walking around Granville Island made it worthwhile but probably could have spent less money staying somewhere else.

You are paying for the views not the room. Views are gorgeous right on water. 5 min walk to public market was great for my 8 day stay. Rooms are very basic. It is an old hotel. My toilet was so close to the sink I needed to wash my hands to the side. Staff was overall very nice respectable. Front desk I found some staff were excellent some ok. Only a couple of staff knew the local area which I found astonishing for the price they were charging the week I was there. Room service was inconsistent. Cleaning was good but what they did every day was different depending on who was
