Good for the price. They gave me the king bed handicap room not that I needed or requested the handicap room. Bathroom was a bit smelly (urine) but I was too jet lagged to complain or change rooms . Front desk staff very good. Stored my bags for the day.

The main problem was that the room was not as clean as it should be. Housekeeping was inconsistent. On two of the days of our stay they didn't clean the sink. My socks got dirty walking on the floor. The toilet was running and they ignored two requests to fix it. I had to ask for a towel for my hair every day of the stay except two days when they left the extra one for me. Some days they didn't replenish the coffee or clean the coffee cup we had used. The gym was not clean. But on the plus side, the hotel is conveniently located, there were windows on two sides of the room with city views, and there was a water dispenser near the elevator for guests to fill water bottles and a laundry room.

All was generally well and the staff were very friendly and supportive. Only two concerns: Handle on the toilet was very loose and fell off it not used very gently and the linen closet outside the room was left open from Saturday afternoon until we left on Sunday with dirty sheets and towels spilling out onto the floor. We notified the front desk with respect to both issues.

I liked the location of the property. I also like the style of the hotel. The front desk lady did not want to plunder our toilet for us. Very rude. She left a plunger in a bag outside our door on the floor, knocked and ran away.

Dear guest, Thank you for choosing GEC Granville Suites. We are sorry about any inconvenience. Unfortunately we do not have overnight housekeeping or maintenance. Our front desk agents are not qualified for non-office job, but they can provide supplies, and request issues to be resolved first thing in the morning. We are sorry for this inconvenience. Thank you for taking your time to write this feedback. Kind regards, GEC Granville Suites.

Excellent location for downtown Vancouver. No need to rent a car, we walked and bikes everywhere. Room was a little outdated, especially the bathrooms but really we only needed a place to crash out at night and it did the trick. The staff was really nice, they housed our bags until it was time to check in so we could walk around without them that day. They also were so nice to arrange a taxi cab for a ride to the airport early morning and called when it had arrived.
