Barclay Hotel

Yeah, ok, so the hotel doesn't have an elevator. The young man at the front desk jumped up and helped carry our luggage up the stairs. There's lots of construction going on in the place, but the noise and the workers bother no one. The room was very clean, especially around the tub and in the corners of the floor, which is where I've noticed nastiness in other hotels. We love walking around to explore cities, and the location of this hotel is amazing for that. Should you be here to catch an event at Rogers Arena, walk Robson street for about 30 min and you're there. If you're catching a cruise ship, walk to Burrard Street, make a left, and it's about a 20 min walk. It was easy hauling our luggage because the path is on a slight decline. You must walk to the left and to the right of the hotel, as there are numerous restaurants of every ethnic food type imaginable. Also, we took the rail from the airport to Vancouver Centre and walked to the hotel which took us about 20 min and cost us about $6 each. These walks are super tolerable because the area is beautiful, with so many stores and so much to see. I highly recommend this hotel. It was a great bargain.
