As expected.
As budget hotels go it's what you'd expect and I'd recommend the Met. It's only for a couple of simple and cheap oversights that it's not A-OK. A heater in the shower room that looks dangerous, if it works, should be fixed or removed or simply an extra $10 lamp in the room, would not leave you considering what sort of manager would sign off on this.

Nasty!
I checked into my hotel the evening of November 17. The room was cold and run down. The air-conditioner vents couldn't be closed so the wind was literally blowing into the room. I had to put a towel and my luggage in front of it to keep heat in the room. The towel rack in the bathroom was also so rusty, it wasn't possible to use it. In the morning the sheets on the bed had shifted, revealing the severe staining on the sheets and mattress cover. I brought it to the attention of the front desk staff, and they stated they would deal with it immediately. I left the hotel for the day, and upon my return it looked like my room had been tossed. The bed side table was pulled out, the blankets were piled in the middle of the bed, and the stains still visible on the bed. At that point I felt unsafe staying there any longer. I informed the front counter that I would be checking out early as I wasn't comfortable staying in those conditions and was then offered to change rooms. I told them I would need to see the room before I agreed, and when they showed me there was not only hair on the sheets, but it was also heavily stained. I left on November 18, as I felt unsafe staying in a place that didn't take cleanliness seriously. The Hotel informed me that they can not give me my money back, as I booked through Hotels.com so I kindly would like a refund because they shouldn't be charging people to sleep on something that most wouldn't allow a dog to sleep on.

Hotel staff are fantastic. This is an older building and I had no issues with room itself. The area the hotel is in is a bit sketchy at night. I had room on the skytrain side, noise didn't bother me as I can sleep through anything. If you are a light sleeper, this would not be ideal. Great historic building and great staff. But other reasons I probably won't be back.

Helpful and friendly at front desk. Unique 100 year old building, high ceilings, clean bathroom and bed linens. Economical price, yet all the aspects we like about more expensive, newer hotel rooms (clean, comfortable bed, clean bathroom and towels, coffee machine) with unique older style. Was noisy by the skytrain outside our window, but earplugs cancelled that out for sleeping.
