Ramada Limited Downtown, Vancouver

Advantages: Pretty much perfection
Disadvantages: Rains alot!

...Coast. ACCOMODATION For the traveller on a budget, Vancouver will seem like heaven. There are 3 excellent hostels in Gastown, Downtown and Jericho Beach. I recommend the latter since there can’t be many city hostels offering beach views and acres of grassland for barbeques and frisbee playing in the summer.

My son loved it too (But not as much as the theme hotel in Edmonton (Different room every night!) The Ramada Hotel Downtown located in the booming metropolis of Calgary and only one hour from the beautiful Canadian Rockies to the west.
