To be reasonable, always an evaluation should be based on the costs. I give a very good rating to this hotel, because when I look at my one week stay there, I would say I definitely will come back. As everybody says, the staff are great and even in the first day you may make good friendship with them. That... More

Great service and staff was very helpful and friendly! The view was awesome (mountains). The hotel is close to Vancouver - central to transit Complimentary coffee is always available. If you like Chinese food, you can go to : Burnaby Palace ( 300 yards from the hotel) - great food

Price was reasonable and we were only there to sleep, so didn't need any amenities. We had two beds, one comfortable, one all slanty and hard. Location is a great starting place to drive from and parking is free, but there is no where to walk to. Noise from traffic is an issue as on a very busy intersection with... More

I booked this hotel mainly because of the price and that they allow pets. When we got here the staff was very helpful. I would have to say they have the best hotel staff I have meet to date. And we travel a lot. There is a few things I dislike about the hotel such as our bathroom was very... More

My partner and I travelled to Vancouver for a vacation to explore the city. We had stayed at the 401 hotel for 6 nights. We absolutely loved that the location was central to transit and several restaurants, which made it easy for us to travel and explore the city in the first couple of days. We rented a car on... More

We desperately needed a place to stay and we made some phone calls around. 401 gave us a very inexpensive weekly rate. We were told that they were working on updating the rooms and had recently taken the hotel over from previous owners. I am not an overly picky person, but this room was awful. It reeked of old beer,... More

I've been vacationing at the 401 Inn in the fall for the past several years. My first stay was great, then the owner sold, and the motel had been steadily going downhill. But this year under new ownership, I had a truly wonderful experience. All the staff were fantastically helpful and friendly. They've refurbished the rooms and really upgraded the... More
