Comfortable rooms

The rooms were a good size. The furniture was comfortable, especially the bed. Staff were friendly. The room was not as clean as we had hoped and we did not get a good clean of the room until we insisted they vacuum the room. However, overall last day was excellent.

Very nice hotel. Superb location, just a a couple of blocks from the BC Parliament Buildings, the Inner Harbour etc. The only complain would be about the shower, which is a shame. Tiny cabin without a handheld, but with a rain shower head that is very awkward to use in the constrained space.
