It isn't an uncommon occurrence for businesses to lose their mettle over the years, and let standards slip. However, I was stunned into silence when we arrived, as the owner of this motel actually raised her standards, instead of losing the plot. The grounds were immaculate. The rooms were like new despite the passage of time, and many guests over three years. There was just just one element to our stay that was less than endearing: our neighbours. On our first night, we chose to ignore all the noise next door, as we were extremely tired. On the second night, the noise commenced early in the evening, and by 11, it had worn us down completely. I wish I had approached the owner of the motel sooner, as she sorted out the problem instantly, and gave me her after hours number in the event the noise resumed. What a relief! Over three years later, and I still love this location very much. Highly recommended.

There's also a restaurant right on the ground floor, which was super convenient. Plus, you're within easy walking distance to coffee shops, convenience stores, and a variety of other restaurants, so you really don't need to drive much once you're here. That said, the parking garage is tiny. Definitely only suitable for compact cars -- if you're driving anything larger, be prepared to struggle or find alternative parking. This isn't a hotel you pick for luxury amenities, and it is expensive for what you get, but if location is your top priority, it's a solid choice.

Imagine the smell of a rug that hasn't been washed in 30 years and soaking-in nasty odors all day and all night. That is basically what the air conditioner smelled like. The "change filter" light was on, but that wasn't terribly helpful at midnight. We were hot and stuffy, but that was better than the gag-inducing smell of the air conditioner. We had a second room which was better, but we still couldn't run the A/C since the smell was the same, but fainter. If they service their air conditioners, this can be a decent place to stay.

The restaurant on the first floor is crowded on weekends, so I recommend making a reservation. The hotel is conveniently located and has coffee shops, restaurants, and bars nearby. I will be staying here again.

The hotel has a hot tub and a sauna, an underground parking, and a nice restaurant. Our room was clean, quiet, spacious, and had everything you could possibly need. The bed was really comfortable! It goes without saying the location of the hotel is perfect and is within walking distance from the coolest sightseeing and restaurants in Vancouver. Only reason for 4 stars is that it seems a bit dated (still very nice) and there's no water / snacks included (you have to run across the hallway to fill glass bottles with water). I'd totally stay here again.

Recently booked a room with a view for our 50th anniversary, what a nightmare this place is. After paying a small fortune for the room, the manager refused to give us free breakfast, that all the other guest enjoyed. On the First night, I slipped in the shower/bath tub because these morons forgot to install grab bars on the wall inside the shower/tub unit. This is a major safety issue for someone 74 years old; we could not shower for the remaining nights during the stay. On the day of our anniversary, I was attacked in the lobby of this sick hotel, by one of their violent guests, directly in front of the hotel receptionist. When I requested that they call the police (RCMP), they refused and did nothing. In all my years as a professional safety engineer, I have never seen such a worn out, dangerous, and useless accommodation. I would not recommend this place to my worst enemy. BTW, there are several other significant hotels at the waterfront in North Vancouver, we will choose one of them next trip.

The Quay hotel has location going for it as a real plus. Lower Lonsdale has always been a pleasant…read moreplace and in more recent years they've added piers, galleries and even nightlife to the area. Aside from that, you're literally atop the Seabus terminal so you can get to downtown directly and quickly along with the pleasant ride that comes with it. You also have the market below, and though the shops IMO aren't much of a draw, it gives you pretty good food choices. Aside from the pluses above, I believe most or even all of the rooms have a view of the water - and if you're near the back you overlook downtown as well. The rooms themselves are nothing special and don't stand out at all, but they're serviceable. Contrary to what some reviews say, there is in fact a fitness room here, but it is small. It does have a small restaurant and I'd recommend looking into the packages which include breakfast and even 2-1 passes with local attractions as you'll save if you're travelling with at least another person. There's an argument given the prime location of this place that a really nice hotel could open up here and thrive. But as long as the Quay hotel sits here, don't expect much of a fancy stay - you do at least benefit from much better location, convenience and views than comparable 3 star hotels.

But, placards at the reception and in the rooms, their language leave you with impression that Nurse Ratched from "One Flew of The Cuckoo's Nest" is running the place.
