Affordable, Good location, Friendly Service

Would highly recommend, easy walk to harbor, Fan Tan Alley practically next door, full kitchen a huge plus with kids, incredibly friendly staff. Not fancy at all, but had exactly what we needed for six people. Would most definitely stay here again. Best deal we could find with kitchen and occupancy for 6 in one room.

Liked: Cleanliness
Check into the long time because the couple in front of us were arguing about a BC AAA card and only one person could check in at a time. Room is definitely dated and has no AC and no bathroom on the second floor which was an issue for us travelling with an elderly person. Location is fabulous. Can walk to everything and felt very safe. We had two bedrooms and a kitchenette, so great if you’re travelling with a larger group.

very cool historical brick building upstairs of a brewery and pub. the 2-story 2bedroom suite set-up was perfect for a family of 5 ppl. neighborhood offers a variety of restaurant options and sense of security overall. everything was walkable: to the harbour center, historic chinatown, water front. The streets did clean so much compare to 2024, in terms of street-living crowds. it was a great choice, will come again! pub food was tasty + opens late!

Great place to stay if you do t mind street noise

Great location with lovely views. We stayed for seven days which included a weekend. It was June and rather warm. The room does not have air con so leaving the door open to the outside is a must. Unfortunately, we don’t begrudge everyone having fun but it is very noisy late into the wee hours. If that doesn’t bother you, you’re good to go. Everything else is great! Close to anything you need and all sightseeing activities.
