This is our second stay at Hotel Carey Lodge at UBC. The price is simply fantastic, and the staff are terrific as well. I will definitely stay here again.
This was a good basic room, which was what we were looking for. Staff directed us to paid parking which was handy. We really just needed to sleep and leave, it was perfect for that.
It was a great place to stay. Staff were all friendly and helpful. The place is clean. The breakfast was really good. The only thing we missed (that is in most hotels) was an ice machine. Other than that, GREAT PLACE TO STAY!
The room was clean and bed was comfortable; however, communication from staff is lacking.

I found the location convenient, however I found the rooms needed freshened up. We had a few things that were either broken(lamp) or chipped(bathroom). One bed mattress needs replaced, as it sinks on one side. Breakfast in cafeteria, not great. You will also have to pay for parking which I felt should have been covered under our stay. I would not use this place for more than one night stay.
What's not to love? It's a lovely facility, UBC campus is beautiful, and it's very peaceful. The rooms are spartan (they're dorms), but they randomly had the *most* amazing towels I've ever had at a hotel, and I've stayed at many top-end hotels (picture bath sheets two inches thick). Toiletries are mid, bring your own shampoo & conditioner unless you are ok with 2 in 1. Breakfast is a bit hit and miss (terrible coffee and eggs, pretty good pancakes & bacon). If you're planning on being in your room just to sleep, it's perfect.

Rooms are very basic but the twin beds were very comfortable. Had a small fridge and coffee machine with modest supplies.
Staff is friendly and helpful. Great location on campus as I was near my daughter to visit for her birthday. Code needed to access elevator and rooms so I felt safe.
The breakfast that was included offered pancakes, eggs, bacon and potatoes. Cereals, juices, coffee and tea. I did mention at booking that I was gluten free - would have been nice to have GF toast and/or pancakes available. Ventured out for breakfast on second day as local coffee places had GF muffin, donut and cookies options available. Restaurants on campus also had gluten friendly options noted on menus.
I had a good stay here. The staff were polite and helpful. The room was clean, spacious and had all the things i needed. They also had free breakfast every morning, which was pretty good.
My minor complaint would be the internet though. The guest internet connection was on some kind of safe mode, which meant i could not access youtube videos which were discussing certain subjects. I don't think adults internet access should be restricted to some kind of safe mode, which are meant to be for kids.
Overall, a good stay. 9/10. Fix the internet (aka remove safe mode) and i would be inclined to give it 10/10

The property was located in a quiet and naturally landscaped neighborhood of the UBC community. I had booked a queen room but eventually got a twin bed. There was no air conditioning in the room. Just a table fan. The standard of hygiene was suspect. The sheets, although laundered, had an oil stain and the pillowcase had make up marks which were missed in the laundry. Our shower curtain rod fell down the first time we used it. The paint was peeling off the walls. Parking was expensive at $26/day. Breakfast was very adequate and basic and the servers were abrupt.
