The only thing I could tolerate here was the sharwama shop downstairs and the kitchenette, though there were broken plates that would have cost nothingto replace. The picture of the hotel before i rented was not what i saw. That was deceptive. Again, the maintenance nees to be upgraded. The elevator stank. I could see them struggling to maintain the hygienic state but such a hotel is way below expectations in the current age and time.

I liked that we were near the water and close to several restaurants with a variety of menus. I liked that it is a vintage property. The room was very unique. Furnishings & decor were from the 50's - 70's. The linens were clean, as was the bathroom. The sad part is that it is not well maintained. Several of the electrical outlets did not work and there were not very many of them. Thank goodness I travel with a wall wort that you can plug several things into. There was a horrible smell when we entered the elevator... it was disgusting! Our grandson is 17 and lives in a rural area of Nevada. He is familiar with rodent odors in storage buildings for yard maintenance tools. He confirmed it was the odor of rodents. And the final disaster was a broken suitcase! On checkout day we went to the elevator. We were on the 3rd floor and waited for at least 10 mins for the elevator. we called the office and no one answered. We had called for an Uber who by then was waiting for us. We finally took the narrow staircase to the lobby, but in the process of descending the stairs, the suitcase handle was broken!!! Making it very difficult to handle for the remaining week of our trip. When we finally got to the lobby someone was holding the door and ignoring the call to allow the elevator to ascend. It was a sad and frustrating ending to a very interesting stay at a unique place.

This hotel was utterly and terribly dirty and very disgusting. This hotel is so run down, carpets and floors look like they have never seen a vacuum cleaner or a mop. I was so disappointed when I had arrived because it does not advertise as you see upon booking online. This hotel is not worth it and will gladly spend extra money to stay at much cleaner hotel.

A older buuilding this gave me the 'back packers' vibe. but it was easy to walk to Stanley park and even doen to Canada place(without luggage) A little confusion over the taps - but once explained all worked fine. The first person on reception from Brazil was good which was a nice welcome. And although I could hear people enjoying the evening below it wasn't enough to disturb - and the econ was nice. All in all, this suited my needs , thanks Cheers
