The venue was quiet, I appreciated the stay and the location was gorgeous just next door to the sea wall and Stanley park and English Bay and beaches. The staff were personable and welcoming made my stay really great. The breakfast was delicious, had plenty of options and the food was brilliant.

You guys made my stay fun. Great location and staff, I loved to be here. A great selection of food at breakfast like eggs, fresh bread and cheese. Pool was clean, comfortable to sit around.

Unfortunately Wi-Fi was kind of slow.
