Review summary

Based on recent reviews

Hotel Willo, formerly the YWCA Hotel, is appreciated for its superb downtown location, putting guests within easy reach of public transit, including bus and subway stations, and various restaurants in Yaletown and Chinatown. Many guests found the private rooms to be comfortable and of a good size, often equipped with a fridge, microwave, and sometimes offering views of BC Place Stadium; some also enjoyed the convenience of the free coffee service. While generally quiet, a few guests have noted noise issues, such as hearing doors slam. The rooftop terrace on the 11th floor is a highlight for many when the weather is nice.

the hotel had onsite laundry which was acceptable.

My room lacked soundproofing. I heard hallway conversations clearly. also, the gap under the door let in excessive light at night. this made it difficult to sleep due to street illumination.

The location was good for getting to events downtown.

The noise really bothered me, I could hear doors slamming. the gap under the door let in a lot of light at night, this made it hard for me to sleep good. The curtains were insufficient as well. They did not block out street lights. I was quite disappointed with my stay because of this.
