I stayed at the Sandman Hotel in Vancouver for three nights and was disappointed with several aspects of my stay. The room was exceptionally small, and the entire floor had a noticeable musty smell. The bathroom vanity was just a sink with no counter space to place toiletries, which was inconvenient. The water temperature in the shower fluctuated constantly and was never truly hot — on my last morning, there was no warm water at all. Gym and pool hours are limited and not available 24/7, which made it hard to fit into my schedule. Even the in-room coffee was poor quality. Overall, the experience didn’t meet expectations, and I would definitely look for other options on a future visit.

This was a nice older hotel in downtown Vancouver. It would be a perfect place to stay if you wanted to make a nice weekend around a BC Lions game as you're very close to the stadium.

Great location

Good location if you are going to things in the downtown area. Costco is across the street from the hotel so that’s convenient. It’s kind of in the middle of everything so getting to places is not too bad. There was a lot of flies always hanging out at the doors so every morning walking the dog I had to dodge them. The elevators sometimes take forever so you might have to use the stairs. Hotel staff was nice, they went beyond to figure out my issue. Booking off hotels.com it didn’t tell us there would be a 30% tax on parking fees, apparently it is applied to Vancouver hotels.
