We [a family of 4] stayed here the night before our cruise. We had a whole room (our own bath). It was clean, comfortable, and close (enough) to the cruise terminal (5/10 minute ride...although you could walk it if you pack lighter than we do). It's also nice that it's a non-profit.

Our room was clean and simply apportioned. Very comfortable bed and plenty of room. Hotel was very quiet at night. The staff was very helpful and friendly. We could walk to several restaurants. We even walked to Stanley Park. One thing to be aware of. There is a sports arena nearby. I think the city has a noise ordinance in place but there was a daytime concert there and it did get loud. We like the idea that the hotel’s profits benefit families.

I would highly recommend anyone stay here . It’s cleanier than any other high dollar hotel you could stay at. We needed suggestions on place to go eat . The staff cleared us to the right street for restaurants. But God blessed us once again. We came up on a salon that was having open house. They invited us in to have all food and drinks we wanted. We was able to hang out with the locals . Enjoy meeting them and then met a couple that was also staying at YWCA and going on cruise. When we got back to room my friend was cold . She went downstairs to get a blanket. Before she could get back up to our room the staff had sent a maintenance man . He turned on the heat for us . He stayed until the room was heated . He told us what temperatures to set it between since it’s not like the USA temperatures. This morning we are going down for coffee in lobby . I went out last night for a minute to pick up my friend sticker. In the lobby there was a room full of young people. Appeared that they had activities for them. You would think with all kids in their it would been loud but know they was having so much fun. The only noise I heard was when I was waiting for the elevator I heard bunch people laughing. When I got on elevator there was bunch young men and women. I told them I heard you laughing now your so quite . Don’t stop because of me I want to party also.So anyone’s that looking for place to stay I wouid definitely recommend staying at YWCA!!!

I really enjoyed my stay at the YWCA hotel but only downside is that the walls are thin so you can hear if you have noisy guests on your floor. I would recommend this hotel to my family and friends.

The staff here were incredible and so kind. I watched an interaction between a mix up with booking and they were so accommodating for the people. Our room was ready early so we were able to check in quite early which helped with our bags as we were on foot. The rooms were clean and cozy. I love that it's a not for profit! The kids loved that they had suckers on the counter. We will go out of our way to stay here again for sure!

It was great to stay at a hotel whose ethos is to give so much support to women and children in the area. We will return for another 2 nights on our way home. Perfect location for public transportation links for the train, ferry and airport.

Didn’t really like the shared bathroom. Especially while have my child there with me, didn’t make me feel safe. Pillows were too hard, extra pillow should be a safe one for variety.
