The hotel is located near the Richmond Airport. There is a free shuttle that goes to the airport every 10-20 minutes. At the airport there are rental cars and a train (Skytrain) to downtown Vancouver (Attention: Buy a ticket for the train at the hotel! At the airport there is an airport surcharge of 5 dollars.)
The hotel is very clean and the service is great. The rooms are adequately furnished and there is an area of water and a small chocolate every evening. The pool is clean and suitable for swimming. The associated restaurant Pier73 is very recommendable (see separate review).
There is a gift shop (you can buy tickets for the Skytrain here) and a kiosk where you can buy fruit, water and sandwiches (and more). We stayed here for a week and it was the right location for our BC trips. Gladly again.
