Granville Island Hotel
Location is fun at Granville island, although market and shops close no later than 6 and not much else going on. It results in a nice quiet sleep and great place to walk around. Rooms not large. Gym equipment needs to replaced.

Vancouver West Cozy Retreat by Host Launch
The room was spotless and so were the bathrooms. They were courteous, motsly kept to themselves. Somehow I didn't see when I booked the room the rules of the house such as showers could only be taken between 8 am and 10pm. Thank you for everything.
