Large public spaces with several lounge areas for privacy. Large restaurant with excellent service. The menu was limited and required careful selection. The food was quite good. Breakfast was excellent with hot food and a good cold selection. Staff everywhere were friendly and helpful. The Vancouver Suite was spacious and comfortable with very good facilities. Everywhere was spotless.

We stayed in Room 19. It was a very large room and the bed was enormous. The room was immaculately cleanbandtea and coffee facilities were plentiful. Our only problem was that the water was barely warm and our showers weren't very pleasant because of the temperature of the water.
