My wife was in having surgery at Royal Columbian hospital and it was very nice to come back to a hotel that was clean and comfortable and very friendly staff. The rates were very reasonable, and the meal coupons were such an added bonus. The food was excellent, and the prices were awesome even without having that added bonus of... More

We had some of our guests stayed in this hotel during weekends two times. During weekends no one can sleep as bar people come to the back patio and talk and laugh loudly until fast mid-night. Loud music goes for a long time! Not to mention the Sky-train noise. More

My son and I were taking this trip for the Thanksgiving holiday. My son booked this hotel primarily based on the reviews from other travelers. It was very close to the skytrain which was our mode of transportatin during our visit so that was really nice as well. Even as close to the train it was, I never heard any... More

We chose this hotel because it was out of town and well priced. The staff were very friendly and helpful and the hotel was quite pleasant. Good value for anyone happy to use public transport. The Skytrain is close by. More

We stayed here as we wanted to have access to Vancouver without being in the city itself. It's a nice hotel, but a few things are worth mentioning. The hotel itself is located in an ok area, but there are not many things within walking distance to do/see in terms of food or shopping. We had to drive to most... More

Not much to say about this place. The location is great, but parking is an issue. Unloading was a royal pain. The hotel itself is quite old, and charming from the outside. The inside I would consider to be lower end than a Super 8 or Motel 6. The room was clean, had window AC, and a flatscreen LCD. Free... More

I don't have any experience with Vancouver hotels. Judging by the other reviews I would appreciate it a lot more if I had. We got it through hotwire but only saved what they claimed was 11% so might have been better to book directly only we would never have thought to stay here otherwise. We had a little problem finding... More

Thanks for the kind words Buckmountain! I was say that the best part of hotwire is find these little hotels that you otherwise wouldn't notice too. We hope to welcome you back soon! More

I've stayed here several times since I first reviewed it in 2008. I stayed here again last night, June 19, and it consistently delivers everything I like. I had spent the previous two nights at the Hilton Metrotown (too expensive, too cramped, don't bother) and I wish I'd stayed at The Met all 3 nights. The Met is really affordable,... More

Great hotel--lots of character. Excellent location. Wonderful continental breakfast--lots of top quality choices. Rooms very clean and staff was very friendly and helpful. Great hotel for the value. The one downside was that the walls were thin. My husband and I will certainly stay at this hotel again. More
