Moda Hotel
Rosedale On Robson Suite Hotel
Rooms are dated but bed was extremely comfortable, especially after a long day on your feet. Kitchenette was a handy feature, I wish there was bags for the ice from the ice machine but it is Vancouver so single use plastics is not anywhere to be found. Last two nights our garbage was not taken.

Sandman Signature Vancouver Downtown Hotel
Staff was generally great, but there were a lot of teens crowding the pool and horsing around with no supervision. Rooms were clean, if small, but the location was convenient.
