This property is not what it used to be. I stay here at least once a year, sometimes twice. Unfortunately, the staff has been the biggest disappointment—they're neither polite nor welcoming. Whenever you ask for something, it feels like you're bothering them. For example, I requested a box of Kleenex, and the receptionist pulled out her own OPENED box from under her desk rather than going to the back room to get a new one!
The location is excellent, but like many hotels in good locations, it seems they're no longer putting in the effort. It feels as if we're supposed to be satisfied with the location alone, and that’s disappointing. I think I'll choose a hotel closer to Metrotown next time - it's only about 10 min drive from this hotel.
