Fun to stay so close to the beach and so close to the action. Hotel itself is worn but clean. Bar downstairs closes at 11 so you can get a good sleep after that. Morning coffee is free, and the extensive breakfast choices are modestly priced. (So are the drink the bar drinks.)

Staff was excellent, always greeted with a smile. This location is close (walkable) to everything you could imagine. Also, transit is so close and accessible to get anywhere (almost) around Vancouver. Half hour walk to the sky train to (and from) the airport. Bus is right outside to jump on and get up the hill to the sky train. To and from the airport for like $10. I can’t say enough great things about this location. Well done Best Western, well done !!

Erik, Calgary

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
What I like about the Hotel is that it's a good spot if you wanted to go to the Beach in the Summertime and relax on a nice trip. The only downfall of my rating are the Hotel conditions. Around The window area, I've noticed that there are a few cracks on the edge of the building, you can hear the storm drain non stop during rainy days. There's one part of the ceiling that looks like a leakage might've happened on the top right end by the window in Room 416. Last but not least the noise, because the AC is connected to the window, it's nice to have it during the Hot Summer Season but the only downfall is when everyone has fun honking at each other in the morning like you left your window open. At least they had a comfy bed.
