The hotel is a older one but it was very clean and the staff was super friendly and helpful. They have a hotel attached to the restaurant. There are places close by for breakfast and lunch. There are stores across the street and Little Italy is a few blocks away.

The hotel hosted a rave in their basement where everyone was very inappropriately dressed and loud music shook our room until 2 am and we weren’t told about it until after I had paid for the room

Run don’t walk! Second worse hotel I ever stayed at. The area is not the safest number one. The hotel is old and rundown. Furniture is from the 70’s and chips and scratches are everywhere. Noisy like crazy. Played loud music until 2 o’clock in the morning every night from the club next door. Nowhere to plug your devices. No breakfast available and only two so so restaurants around the area for breakfast. They barely did any housekeeping and I needed to tell them to leave towels and coffee and whitener everyday. Came back from the day out one day to find the bed unmade. Don’t waste your money. Spend a bit more and go somewhere else. This hotel really sucked and I’ve stayed at lots of hotels over the years. We were there for 4 nights. Very disappointing. Would never recommend or return!

Surprisingly nice hotel but bring your earplugs Secret gem not very known because if its location. Very safe, the dangerous area of Hasting is 6 blocks away towards Main Street. Very nice staff, hotel well renovated. There is a dollar store and Supermarket right in front and bus stop as well. Its by no means a ritz carlton but its a nice hotel for a fair price. I would return again. If you are staying the weekend or during some of the events in the bar below, you need ear plugs. If you are a light sleeper this is not the hotel for you.

If you just need a bed to spend the night in before your cruise departs the next day, this place does the job. It’s old and run down and the bar/club downstairs has the noise level way too high until after 2:00 am. Their website was clear ahead of time that that would be the case, but we didn’t get a chance to day we wanted a room away from the noise. If I have to spend the night in Vancouver again, I’ll do it someplace else.

The staff were fantastic. The hotel is dated but perfectly adequate. The only negative is the proximity to East Hastings street which is a no go area. I booked because the price was far less than central Vancouver and spent the difference on taxi fares to avoid the homeless drug addicts

I ended up leaving the property without even trying to negotiate a refund…the staff that helped me was fine but as a single traveller I did not feel safe at the property. I was approached a few times on my way in by some people on the street that made me feel uneasy. An email prior to me arriving assured me that the area was safe and it was a few blocks away that was the rougher area. I left found a safer area and found a different hotel in North Vancouver.

Area doesn’t feel safe, a lot of homeless hanging around outside and in the parking lot. It's Attached to a bar so very noisy until the early hours even on a normal weekday. 10 minute drive to downtown . It’s okay for one night but I wouldn’t want to stay longer.

The property itself was good and they had safety protocols for the hotel. Our room was above liquor store so it was pretty noisy. But it wasn’t all night. Would stay again staff were the best.
