The staff at this establishment were the main reasons this got three stars. They were amazing. They preformed Over and above. if I were to return it's because of them The hotel is cleanish, it's just old. Beds were comfortable. Lots of wear and tear. A lot of homeless/crackheads around. They are harmless but very visible. Hotel is right next to transit that can get you anywhere. Walking distance to a few restaurants. Walking distance to the pier. If you are visiting for 3 to 4 nights, it should be fine.

Overall this was a nice property. The room itself had been recently decorated and was very spacious. What dragged it down was the location in not the best area of town. However I don’t think New Westminster is a bad area and we spent some lovely times walking along the Fraser River. Skytrain is also easy to get to being 10 minutes away.

The hotel is a few steps away from the Columbia SkyTrain station. It's an old hotel but we'll maintained. Reception staff were very friendly. The bed was softer than I wanted but otherwise it was a very nice stay.

Parking costs were not included in pricing, which seems questionable as the rooms were dusty and old and carpet was dirty.

A depressing place in a part of New Westminster that is probably safe enough but isn’t attractive. Parking is offsite and did not feel secure. Everything about this property says minimal effort. Not recommended.

Very helpful staff and so convenient with the skytrain, parking, cafes, and shopping. Also, beautiful location with the water-side park just across the road. Even with the heating off, the room was somewhat stuffy, however. Unfortunately, you might hear the constant sky train from 5:30am, but the ac unit should help to drown that out.
