Noise review insights for British Columbia, Canada

2 nights into a 5 night stay, and confident leaving a 5 star review. Great layout (1 bedroom suite), amazing location walking distance from anything you could ever need. Yes, the AC unit is loud but it drowns out busy street noise. Staff have been excellent, helping us with every request, including helping our son when the patio door came off the tracks and he was stuck out on the balcony! 😂

2 stars. first time at chipotle and the workers were to fast and gave me beans when i didn’t want them. the drink machine had no ice so all the drinks were warm. the food was spicy and i asked for the no spice. the store was very loud and the tables were not cleaned well. would not recommend

A 5 star hotel wouldn’t rent out the room next to their check-in area to a club making it impossible to hear the front desk staff. They also couldn’t hear what I was saying. We stayed 3 levels above the check-in level (where the club is) and we could still hear the music. Loud base all night with drunk people in the elevators and lobby.

We planned a family dinner at Dockside in lieu of our sons upcoming wedding. This would be our first visit to Dockside and based primarily on the fact that there is a lovely patio that frequently passed . We reserved a patio well in advance. Gamily would be coming a long way and with a small baby, outside would be ideal. At 2 pm on the day, staff phoned to inform us that the patio would be closed due to the rain. It was too late and complicated to alter 6 people’s schedules. The huge room where we sat was hot, stuffy & noisy. No air conditioning. When asking about turning on the fan, they said " door was open. " Food was disappointing & unimaginative with limited menu items for non meat eaters. Macaroni & cheese! Mussels were skimpy & small portions of halibut decorated with a few peas & potato pops, left all of us leaving hungry. The place was packed. Baby and I, overwhelmed by the noise, spent half the time outside on the now dry patio. Service was mediocre. We repeatedly needed to request water refills although I watched a waiter at an adjacent table actually pour water for guests! Certainly not conducive to the experience we anticipated and at a hefty price. We're always willing to pay for atmosphere, sumptious food and a relaxing meal. While we understand challenges restaurants have faced, this is over the top. Particularly on such a special occasion. Rain does happen & many patios remain open. We returned home to eat some food.

We’d read on the internet about their afternoon tea and thought of trying. We walked in at 2 pm on Sunday. A hostess with the name tag Zophia told us they were fully booked, but she could accommodate us for the last seating at 3 pm, “because of a cancellation”. When he came at three, the tearoom was half-empty. The meal was slightly above (maybe) what you could get at a decent sandwich shop for 1/3 of their outrageous price of $65 pp. A tiny cup of a tasteless watery soup was followed by two stale brioches with supermarket-quality jam and clotted cream. The latter was actually pretty good, even though the waitress called it “chantilly”. It should be noted that chantilly is French for whipped cream, which it was not, but, apparently, she thought that dumb Americans wouldn’t know what clotted cream was, and chantilly sounded upscale. That was followed by tea with milk on the side - said milk must’ve stayed in the milk jug for at least a day, as it started forming a fat layer. The macaroons were dry - frozen stuff from Trader Joe’s tastes a lot better, etc. Shall I continue? One sentence summarizes it all. A ripoff.

$100 deposit on old fashioned keys!! Thin walls are thin and the nightclub is loud The staff smoke just past the door so a pleasant walk into the establishment through their smoke One set of towels in our room for 2 Blinds with light coming from all 4 sides in window but no curtains Not recommended!

It’s not the best barbecue I’ve ever had but portion sizes are HUGE and there are some major highlights - the ribs, sausage, beans and cornbread were standouts to me. If you’re with a group, make sure you order a platter so you can try a bit of everything! Drinks are very affordable, although it’s a bit cramped and quiet inside so I’m not sure I’d want to hang out there for too long.

Was easy to get to and check in/park. I kept hearing band music every few minutes for about 20 seconds.. on the 12th floor. Found a grape on the floor. Very dusty. There is no fridge or microwave in the room......... haven't checked our the pool yet I'm sure it will be fine for my child and as long as the hot tubs working hot enough and not filled with old men in spedos that will be the highlight.
