2/10 Poor

Nasty!
I checked into my hotel the evening of November 17. The room was cold and run down. The air-conditioner vents couldn't be closed so the wind was literally blowing into the room. I had to put a towel and my luggage in front of it to keep heat in the room. The towel rack in the bathroom was also so rusty, it wasn't possible to use it. In the morning the sheets on the bed had shifted, revealing the severe staining on the sheets and mattress cover. I brought it to the attention of the front desk staff, and they stated they would deal with it immediately. I left the hotel for the day, and upon my return it looked like my room had been tossed. The bed side table was pulled out, the blankets were piled in the middle of the bed, and the stains still visible on the bed. At that point I felt unsafe staying there any longer. I informed the front counter that I would be checking out early as I wasn't comfortable staying in those conditions and was then offered to change rooms. I told them I would need to see the room before I agreed, and when they showed me there was not only hair on the sheets, but it was also heavily stained. I left on November 18, as I felt unsafe staying in a place that didn't take cleanliness seriously. The Hotel informed me that they can not give me my money back, as I booked through Hotels.com so I kindly would like a refund because they shouldn't be charging people to sleep on something that most wouldn't allow a dog to sleep on.

Very pleasantly surprised and well within costs.
We didn't expect much of a hotel in old New Westminster, especially on the main street. However, we were very impressed with this 'boutique' hotel and enjoyed our stay very much. It was only a few steps from the Skytrain station at Columbia which made it perfect for us. The price was certainly within reason for a greater Vancouver hotel. We elected to stay there because of the price and the convenience of the Skytrain. We'll definitely be back again next year before heading off on another cruise. Lovely woman of Ukrainian descent at the front desk too. Overall, well worth a stay in this lovely hotel.

Old hotel, but convenient for our needs. Bathroom was clean and the beds were comfortable. The rest of the room furniture was worn. The chairs outside our room in a sitting area looked recently redone. The hotel is on a busy street and the back of the hotel faces the rapid transit line. The trains run all night.It’s a half mile walk to a restaurant for breakfast. Smallest lobby I have ever seen, but the woman on duty was very friendly.

6/10 Good

Not what was expected based on provided photos of rooms on website. Definitely has an old vibe which can be really nostalgic, but it just didn’t have a feeling of clean when getting into our room. The carpets in the hotel are very dated, and I would not recommend wearing bare feet or socks. Wear your shoes. Bed was so old you could feel the sprigs in the mattress. Just like the spare bedroom of your 90 year old grandmothers house. For over $200 I would suggest looking somewhere else to stay. The staff are lovely, but I definitely felt this could be a place that would have bedbugs at some point. I did look and there wasn’t any found. Thankfully

The hotel was nice and clean and the common visiting area on the floor was lovely. Staff was very nice and helpful. The carpets and bathroom tiles were old and worn and the surrounding area had many struggling people on the streets. Overall, it was a good, clean place at a reasonable price
