We stayed here on two separate nights, and had a pleasant experience each night.
Front desk staff was friendly and helpful. The room was clean, quiet, and the
beds comfortable. We took advantage of the free airport shuttle, and the free
parking while we were away, and that was really convenient. The included
breakfast was good, although the space was quite crowded.

We stayed four nights and found the hotel remarkably quiet for being so close to
the airport. It must be off the flight path, because two additional nights at a
different area hotel that was further away were much noisier. A recent
remodeling seems to have been mostly completed. We found the bed comfortable,
and the room decor pleasant. The included complimentary breakfast was
substantially better than those provided by many chain hotels, with better
pastries, fresh (hard-bolied) eggs, good coffee, and fresh fruit.

We arrived late Saturday evening at the Vancouver airport, staying one night
before heading off to the cruise terminal downtown. We chose the Abercorn Inn
because if was close to the airport, offered free shuttle service, and had
available shuttle bus fee service to the cruise terminal the next day. We were
told the airport shuttle ran at 15 and 45 minutes after the hour, and true to
word the bus was there at exactly 9:45 PM. Check in service in the small lobby
was fast and pleasant. We wanted a quick bite to eat. The on-site restaurant
service closed at 10 PM but we were able to get a very good Shrimp Caesar salad
in the bar. The facility was still undergoing renovation as there was a pallet
of new mini-fridges by the elevator. The room was on the small side but was
clean and comfortable. As we had checked in late, we just wanted a place to bed
down. The 3rd party shuttle bus to the cruise terminal was on time in the
morning. The desk clerk arranged it for us. The biggest negative was the free
breakfast which was horrible. Of course, it was crowded due to other cruise
passengers being on site. But breakfast selections were meager and not very
good. Definitely below average even for a free hotel breakfast. Other than that,
service was commendable, the place was quiet, clean, and comfortable, and the
price competitive. I would stay there again

My husband and I stayed two nights at this hotel after driving to Richmond from
Seattle, WA. We arrived a bit after midnight, the night shift receptionist did
what she was suppose to do to check us in and nothing beyond her job
description, not even a smile. Ok, fine, maybe she was tried, I can give her
benefit of the doubt.
After we got to our room (dark and poorly decorated in my opinion), we quickly
got ready for bed because it was extremely late. In the middle of the night, I
woke up with EXTREME itching of my right leg - yep, that's right. BED BUG! The
next morning, on our way to the elevator downstairs, we saw a guy spraying some
kind of treatment to the outside door frame of another room. I was a little
relieved because it seemed like they knew about the problem and did something
about it. Unfortunately the same thing happened on the second night, not to me
but my husband, he was also bitten by bed bugs.
Now, on a more positive note, the hotel was located near the airport, on a busy
street and pretty easy to spot. I also enjoyed its close proximity to Aberdeen
center. The breakfast was excellent, offered both cold and hot items and
Seattle's Best coffee.
I was surprised at how horrible my experience turned out to be, especially when
I researched the hotel on TripAdvisor before we booked it. Maybe it was just my
room #253, which was on the end of a very long hall way. Needless to say, I will
never return to this hotel due to the potential health/safety/sanity issues.
