Frommer's Review
The Inn at False Creek went through a top-to-bottom refurbishment in 2007, making the rooms fresher and more contemporary. The upgraded decor, near-downtown (and Granville Island) location, and amenities make this a good choice for this price range, but street traffic is ever-present as the hotel sits next to the Granville Bridge on-ramp. Rooms are a good size, the tiled bathrooms have tubs and a shower, and the suites are great for families -- some have full kitchens and narrow, glassed-in balconies. Rooms at the back are preferable but the traffic noise is minimized in the front by double-pane windows and blackout curtains. The Inn has a nice outdoor pool and patio (open summer only).

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.
Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.
The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
