Good Pit Stop
Not a bad place for overnight. Close to airport, bus line and rapid transit.
Rooms were a tad small but clean. Hotel pool is very small. Onsite restaurant
was quite good. Was close to the Richmond Summer Night Market which was fun.

Good location to airport
It was a good hotel if you need to stay close to the airport. Clean and
comfortable. I would not rely on the free airport shuttle though. We put our
names down for the 5:45am shuttle the night before so that we would be at the
airport around 6am but we were told when we got down there that we wouldn’t fit
on because people missed the shuttle before ours.

I would definitely stay at the Vancouver Airport Travelodge again.
Checking in was easy. The woman at the front desk was very courteous and
answered my numerous questions without any impatience. She even printed out a
map for me and delivered it to my room. The hotel also made getting to the
airport very easy with their free shuttle

Room on 3rd floor- 2 "comfy" queen beds, quite large (perfect for all our
luggage), free airport shuttle, loved the lounge & restaurant (very good
breakfast but lacking in "service"), pool & hot tub only downfall bathtub very
old & mold all around windows, otherwise room very clean and quiet considering
the location

We'd been to Travelodge several years ago, but the service had been terrible.
the front desk had lacked a first aide kit (for my sister who'd fallen in the
parking lot), insisting instead that we either buy band-aides from the vending
machine (that wasn't there this time), or going down the road to a drug store.
After ranting and rallying, however, it turned out they indeed had a first aide
kit, with all of 5 or 6 knuckle-shaped band-aides.
Initially, we hadn't planned to EVER return, but when we found a deal
(advertising $200+ rooms for only $89) we decided to try it again. We arrived
apprehensively, but were surprised when the new front desk clerk, Paul, was
FANTASTIC.
He actually read our special requests (no first or second floor, not by
elevators) and then asked if we needed a microwave or fridge. He told us that
the rooms on the higher floors (he said the 10th) did not have fridges or
microwaves since they'd recently been renovated. He apologized that only the 2nd
floor would be available if we needed those amenities. We replied that we only
needed a fridge (my sister wanted to buy Dragon Beard Candy from the Richmond
Night Market), so he found us a room on the 8th floor. With a fridge but not a
microwave.
The room was ok. It seemed to have less counter space then regular rooms (only a
computer desk and the top of the T.V. cabinet with a seemingly awkward gap
between them). The washroom was alright, relatively average for a hotel
bathroom, the only complaint being a lack of conditioner (with a family of three
girls, all with long hair, that was a problem). The soap was also bar soap and
not shower gel, not a huge problem, but still worth noting.
A few nights into our stay, we met George, also a very very nice front desk
clerk (pretty much as accommodating as Paul, actually, they're both probably the
best front desk people I've ever met - and according to my 'cities i've visited'
app on facebook, I've been to 79 cities, maybe 1/3 of which I've stayed at
hotels).
The housekeeper also kept giving us only 3 sets of towels (we were a party of
4), but as soon as we told her, she was sure to fix the problem, and after that
we always got 4 sets.
I think that's all that's worth noting.... be sure to go to Hot Pot One in
Aberdeen Centre, as well as Tofu Excellence (or something like that) in the
little strip mall across from the underground parking entrance for Aberdeen!
