Three of us booked the suite (indicated in the website - suitable for 6 people) for a week. The suite was clean and in my opinion, just nice for 4 people. It was too small for 6. The free broadband access was great as 3 of us surfed the web simultaneously. The receptionists were helpful and assisted us in our requests diligently. The hotel location is conveniently situated and well within walking distance to shopping areas such as Robson and even Gastown (30 min walk). Will definitely consider staying in Ramada again if I return to downtown Vancouver.

This is one very friendly hotel which we would not hesitate to recommend. We reserved there for the value but will be back because of the friendly staff and the location. We already knew that we could drop off our suitcases early but when we did that at 9:30 a.m., they gave us the key to our room at 9:30 a.m. because it was ready! The room itself was immaculate, with terry cloth robes and bottled water - all in downtown Vancouver for $149 per night! The room was a bit small (the king bed took up a lot of the room) but very comfy bed and efficient air conditioners. Transit at the door, seabus station 5-minute walk. Great location for sightseeing. As for the location, as long as you turn right when leaving the hotel, you will be fine. (Mind you, go left if you want to be in Chinatown in a few minutes). Breakfast is included with the room with TWO hot items (scrambled eggs with either pancakes or french toast) as well as the usual offerings, glass plates and staff on hand to help.

We went to bed around midnight but woke up not long afterwards feeling itchy. We ignored it at first, thinking it was due to a new place and the small beds (twins). It was not until we turned on the lights and saw swollen red bumps all over our arms that we knew it was something else. We ended up catching 5 of these critters, including 2 huge ones that squirted blood when they were killed. We went to the front desk but were told they couldn’t help up until 8am in the morning because the manager wasn’t in and they had no new rooms they could move us to. We ended up sitting on the floor (didn’t dare go near the bed anymore) all through the morning. Will update later with how management deals with this.

We stayed at the Ramada Limited for one night before our cruise. We had a very nice stay. The hotel is small and unimpressive from the outside, but the interior is very nicely decorated and very clean.

The room was a little bit small, but this an older hotel and we were very comfortable. The folks at the front desk were extremely friendly, helpful and accommodating. I really appreciate the help they gave us during our short stay!

The location is easy walking distance to the things we wanted to see and do in the area (eat, walk along Robson Street, Gastown, etc.). We did take a taxi to our cruise ship at Canada Place since hauling all of our bags the half mile or so would have been to much, but the taxi far was cheap (around $10 plus tip).

If you are looking for a big, modern, spacious hotel in a gleaming tourist district, this isn't the hotel for you. If you want a charming, clean, older hotel with a fantastic staff at a very reasonable price, this is a hotel I would recommend.
