I recently stayed at the Barclay Hotel and while it had its charm and a great location, I was left a bit underwhelmed. The staff were friendly and helpful, but the lack of amenities and the condition of the rooms made it hard to feel completely satisfied. Overall, it was decent for a budget stay, but I wouldn't want to linger here for too long.

Rooms

The room was small and pretty basic, lacking essential amenities like a coffee maker or mini fridge. It felt a bit dated, and there were cleanliness issues like hair in the bathtub. The bed, although comfortable, had some squeaks which made sleep challenging at times.

The location is a major plus, right on Robson Street with easy access to shopping, restaurants, and attractions. I loved that I could walk just about everywhere I needed to go.

Breakfast wasn't included, and while there were plenty of eateries nearby, it would have been nice to have some dining options available at the hotel itself.

Facilities

Facilities were pretty basic, lacking an elevator which made lugging my bags exhausting, especially since I was on the second floor. It would have been nice to have more comfort in the lobby area too.

The hotel had charming chandeliers and an old-world feel, but it could definitely use some modern updates. The lack of an elevator was also inconvenient.
