No transfer from the airport
Vancouver city center is recommended.
Access from the airport
In front of the airport building
There is a skytrain station.
to Vancouver city center station
About 25 minutes.
Since the airport station is
the first train You can't go wrong.
Access from Vancouver city center station
Skytrain is a two-car train.
It is an unmanned train.
It runs on the ground around the airport,
but It will soon become a subway.
Trains are short, so stations are small.
The station has one exit. (as far as i know)
After exiting the station, turn left.
Turn left at the first corner.
Passing left and right in front of
it is Robson Street.
Turn right on Robson Street Straight.
PITTY POINT ①
Although it is renovated it's a very old hotel.
Therefore there is no elevator.
Even so, it is a three-story building.
Carry a heavy suitcase
when checking out It's just hard
when going down stairs.
when you open the entrance door
up to the lobby there are about 10 steps of stairs.
PITTY POINT ②
No refrigerator.
It was a one bed room.
It seems that there is a room for two people.
There is an ice bucket in the room .
mezzanine? I'm going to go get it
from the ice machine.
check in
I arrived around 11:00.
Check-in is from 14:00.
They will keep your suitcase for you.
I have a room that has already been cleaned .
I was able to check in as is.
It's a small hotel with 85 rooms.
The neighborhood is flexible.
reasonable price
The hotel's evaluation was about 3.5.
It doesn't have an elevator
not equipped with a refrigerator,
restaurants, gyms etc.
Added value plus alpha.
I think it's because there isn't one.
I chose this place anyway that
the price is reasonable.
According to the hotel website
1 bedroom
Winter price 64C$
Summer price 119C$
I think it depends on the booking site etc.
It is attractive to be able to stay
for less than 100 C$ per night.
It is sold-out when searching Only 1 room left.
It is recommended to suppress it early.

About the weather in Vancouver this season
I used to check the application on my phone every day.
Daytime weather was around 77°F (25℃)
I thought long sleeves would be fine.
Good weather during my stay
about 86℉(30℃) during the daytime.
I needed half sleeves.
After i return Tokyo it was 77℉.(25℃)
Choice of what to wear It's also gambling.
On Robson Street , casual and high brand
There are various shops.
If you want to buy clothes
for the time being while traveling
Old navy, MUJI, etc. reasonable shops are
also on the same street.
If you want to enjoy an elegant hotel life
maybe not.
In terms of cheapness and convenience
I think it's the best performance.
would i choose again? YES
