The property probably has the potential and the ability to give a great experience to its guest but for the price that you pay per night, there are a fair few issuee, we haven't seen anyone from the hotel at front desk over two days, no house keeping, the AC doesn't work, but they do have a portable unit in the room, but this wasn't mentioned at check in, but it was only a security guard that checked us in, the tv is also not working. Positives are the bed is very comfortable and the shower is great to, room is a good size and the art works in the room are nice. I would like to hear from the manager of the hotel at some point to get some clarification on these above issues.

Perfect spot to stay for a concert!

We really enjoyed our 1 night stay at Skwachàys Lodge Indigenous hotel and wished we would have had time for an extra night because the hotel and amenities were amazing! They have the coolest rooftop sauna area, and our room was clean and unique, decorated so perfectly. Don’t let negative reviews of the area scare you off. I’m sure depending on the day it can seem a little rough…but we didn’t find it bad at all. The 5 minute walk to Roger’s Place arena really made it so convenient, and there is so much to see and do in that area. Highly recommend and will stay again!

Great coccoon in Vancouver. Easy check in and very safe lodge. The AC was broken and sadly made our night there uncomfortable, despite the fan they gave us. Also appreciated the awesome shower and linens, comfy bed. Near chinatown and easy ride to train station.

Hotel was great and nice and clean. Area around hotel has a lot of unhoused people and substance abuse. The area does smell like urine, but if you know this before hand, you aren’t surprised. Hotel itself is wonderful, affordable, and a lovely social enterprise. Would not hesitate to stay here again.

We did not get to stay simply because the AC was broken. It’s not anyone’s fault, however what is inexcusable is the fact we were not notified sooner. The hotel waited till we showed up for check in. An email would have been nice so it wouldn’t be sprung on us to find a hotel for the same night.

The Hotel was really nice! Room was clean and had all we needed. The AC was out abd our room was definitely on the hot side. It was explained that a city power issue affected them and were working to get it up and running. A discount was offered but i have yet to see if that will happen. Will certainly stay again. Great option to go to Rogers Arena to catch a game or concert as it's a short walk.
