"Good rates. The room decor was a bit dated, but everything was clean and we had a nice view of the grounds. We had to wait to check in because of an issue with the person ahead of us, but were impressed with the professionalism of the hotel clerk. We ordered room service; the food was top-quality, and it was delivered promptly. We'd definitely stay here again and highly recommend it.2016-06-18"
"Easy access to Vancouver and the Blaine border crossing. The hotel and room were clean, and my room was unexpectedly quiet despite facing a major road. The bed was quite comfortable; I got a good night's sleep. The staff was courteous. Skip the attached restaurant, though; it was pricey and the menu wasn't imaginative. Good place to stay.2016-04-23"

"Comfortable and extremely quiet despite being an airport hotel. Dinner at the on-site restaurant was surprisingly good, and the bar employees were exceptionally friendly. The airport shuttle was on time, and the driver was friendly, helpful, and courteous. We couldn't have asked for more. Stay here; you won't be disappointed.2018-07-01"
"An OK hotel. It was clean, and there was no smoking allowed above the main floor; however, someone smoked on the balcony next to mine, and smoke drifted into my room. The room key was hard to use. The hallway carpet needed cleaning. Breakfast was above average, and the attendant was exceptionally friendly. I'd stay here again.2019-12-09"
"The hotel smelled like air freshener used to cover up worse smells. The room was small and poorly laid out. The TV didn't work, even after the manager tried to fix it. We were moved to another room, and after a short time, the TV in the 2nd room stopped working. Breakfast was great.2017-05-30"

"The hotel was reasonably priced. The room was clean and comfortable, and the beds had lots of soft pillows. The room had a desk and chair, a lounge chair with a reading lamp, a small fridge, coffee maker, iron, and ironing board. The sink was separate from the bathroom. Wake-up calls and an airport shuttle were available. The staff was friendly. Ask for a room in back away from the freeway.2018-10-15"
"An amazing experience. The room was spacious and comfortable, and the hotel staff was nice, polite, and helpful. The room service food was very good, so I recommend ordering at least once. Good place to stay, but keep in mind that it's in the middle of nowhere, with nothing nearby but McDonald's and car dealerships.2016-09-06"

Staff was helpful and always pleasant. The complimentary breakfast was fantastic. Dinner was also delicious. Great hotel. 2015-03-04"
"The hotel staff was most helpful when the shuttle driver refused to take me from the airport to the hotel because I arrived with a dog. The clerk was professional and deducted the cost of my taxi from the room rate. The room was well-decorated and in perfect condition. Book it.2018-02-04"

"Good hotel. The room was clean, and the bed was comfortable. Decent breakfast. On the down side, it took almost 2 hours to get picked up at the airport by the shuttle and taken to the hotel. To be sure I made my morning flight, I had the staff arrange for a cab to pick me up. Not happy about the $250 deposit just in case I smoked in the room. I don't smoke. Stay somewhere else.2016-01-13"
"This hotel wasn't at all what we expected. The room was small and dated. No shuttle service; the guests could pay for a taxi and bring the receipt to the front desk for reimbursement. Don't stay here.2022-04-29"
"The hotel was a little dated, but it was reasonably priced and the staff was efficient. This is a good airport hotel.2017-06-30"
"The room was clean and had the view we asked for. Room service was great, and so was the restaurant, Pier 73. Efficient and pleasant check-in, and I was able to get in my room early. The airport shuttle was comfortable; we used it to transfer to the skytrain to get around town, which I recommend.2015-10-09"

How Do We Define Motel?
To us, motels are smaller lodgings that have rooms you can enter directly from the parking area.
At hotels, on the other hand, you can enter your room only through a hall inside the building.
Hotel Booking Tips
Beware of non-refundable reservations that could cost you a lot of money if you change or cancel them. +Non-refundable reservations are a gamble that will usually save you less than $10. If you make a $90 non-refundable reservation instead of a $100 refundable booking, you are betting $90 to win $10. Would you do that in Las Vegas? -
Don't assume you can cancel a non-refundable reservation without penalty if you notify the hotel weeks or even months in advance. +Often you cannot – because some hotels' profit strategy is to get paid more than once for the same room for the same night. -
Always read cancellation policies carefully before you make a reservation. + When is the latest date and time you can cancel without penalty? - More >
When you make a reservation, you will receive a confirmation email. Take a copy with you to the hotel.
The earlier in the afternoon you check into a hotel, the more likely you will get a room or suite that matches your preferences.
