Adequate for its purpose as a airport hotel. Excellent shuttle
service to airport. Good poster display in the room- a few
unusual stains on the wall.

I stayed at the Travelodge after my cruise to Alaska. I needed a
room for the night near the airport before my morning flight
home, and I wanted to spend as little as possible for a three
star hotel. This hotel met all the criteria and included free
shuttle service to the airport.
The hotel was clean and comfortable. The attached restaurant
served a full menu. Due to an early flight, I didn't sample the
breakfast buffet included in the room price.
Contrary to what an earlier post stated, there is no shopping
mall across the street; there is a large furniture and/or
appliance store and several small eateries. There is nothing
within easy walking distance to serve as entertainment. However,
a local taxi company seems to use this hotel as a waiting area
between runs, so there is usually a taxi readily available.
The shuttle serves two other hotels and runs at half hour
intervals. My departure was at a busy time, so the bus was
completely filled, and two passengers had to wait for the next
shuttle.
I would stay at the Travelodge again if my plans ever call for a
flight from Vancouver. It is a good value for the price.

We specifically booked this hotel because it was supposed to
have a 24/7 shuttle. We booked thru the AARP website which also
said they had the shuttle. We got to the airport at 2AM only to
find the shuttle does not run between midnite and 5 am. So w e
had to hail .a cab for $15 and get there. Front desk did not
offer any recompense for the error - which was disappointing as
well. Hotel room was pretty drab and everythin looked pretty old
and had seen its day; I had to ask for more towels & glad I did
-- when I went to use them - half of them had stains on them -
they smelled clean enough, but I wasn't about to use towels that
had permanent stains on them. Hotel mgmt should have pulled them
for rags, not for guest use. The highlight of the evening was
that in the morning they had a very nice breakfast available in
the onsite eatery. Room was quiet. There are other places I have
stayed close to Vancouver airport for the same amount of money
that are much nicer - -the only reason I chose this was the
shuttle - which turned out not to be available anyway........

Stayed here because of proximity to Vancouver airport and the
reasonably-priced bus service to Whistler, Snowbus. Snowbus
picks you up at the hotel's door. Shuttle bus service from
airport was quick and easy. Across street from shopping mall.
Completely adequate hotel for this purpose.

We stay here all the time the night before we fly out from the
airport, and the night we return from vacation. There is a very
good, free, easy shuttle service to and from the
airport......airport is only a few minutes away. Service is very
helpful, always a smooth check in. We also appreciate the fact
that they accept pets, as we have had to on occasion bring our
dogs. The Pantry restaurant at the hotel is VERY good, quite
upscale nowadays with an excellent
"smothered" omelette for breakfast. Restaurant staff are
excellent. This hotel is great for the one night guest on their
way to the airport the following day or after their trip if
returning late. Rooms arent fancy but I have found them clean
(and I'm picky) and they have everything you need. |
