Frommer's Review
As yet another example of south Granville's ongoing gentrification, this formerly down-at-the-heels hotel was bought, gutted, renovated, and reopened with an eye to the budget-conscious traveler. The rooms are simply and adequately furnished; the suites have kitchenettes and sofa beds. To get any kind of view, request a unit facing Granville. The rooms are moderately larger and more comfortable than at the Ramada across the street. Keep in mind, however, that while quite safe, this is still a fringy downtown neighborhood where you'll see panhandlers and street kids.

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.
