On the plus side:
(1) Location is within walking distance (10-20 minutes) of such major downtown sites and areas such as Robson Square and Canada Place
(2) Price is reasonable for a clean, reasonably comfortable mid-range hotel in a major city
(3) Staff were extraordinarily friendly and seemed genuinely glad to see you...
On the negative side:
(1) I found significant traffic noise, even though I was on the sixth (executive) floor.
(2) It seemed to take ages to get hot water for the bath.
(3) Front desk staff sometimes gave information which wasn't complete, or inaccurate. For instance, it would have been helpful for them to tell me that the theatre ticket I had for one evening meant my venturing into a questionable area of the city after dark. Estimates of walking times to various locations was more than once, considerably off (i.e. significantly underestimated) - and I walk at a reasonably brisk pace.
(4) I found the pool very small, and it's located in a rather isolated part of the hotel.
