8/10 Good
"My two sons (teen and young adult) and myself stayed at the North Vancouver Hotel for one night after seeing a concert in town. The neighborhood was not anything to write home about. I initially found it to be a little sketchy, but we had a very safe experience. We even caught the bus at the stop around the corner to get to our show in downtown. If you cared to explore the public transportation here, this is a convenient location to start. The bus took us to the train station and it’s a straight shot to downtown from there, maybe 10-15 minutes away. Traffic was quite heavy that day, so we were happy to avoid all that craziness. The room was clean and I didn’t get the icks like I have at other higher rated hotels. I found the beds comfortable..not too soft or too firm. Our room had small windows that you can open if you like. We traveled here in cooler fall weather and found the heater unit to be quite loud, but efficient! The noise didn’t bother us as we were so tired. The hotel offers a complimentary continental breakfast..parties, yogurt, pancake. Not the most healthy or filling fare and the coffee was pretty mid. For the price, it’s pretty much what I would expect. Bottom line if you’re looking for a clean, comfortable, affordable no frills stay, this is the spot!"
