    There should be a sign on the lobby desk that says to ring bell when desk is unattended when checking in late at night. I didn’t initially see the bell and panicked for 15 mins on how I was going to check in at 1am in the morning.

    Room had everything you needed

    It seems the UBC pool is always closed when I stay at the Gage Suites - frustrating.

    Pouring rain the whole time.

    This was my third stay at the UBC gauge suites, and just like the other two times, it was just great. Check-in was virtually instantaneous, the room was clean, modern and very very quiet and extremely comfortable. It exceeded my expectations. Parking was $18 but wonderfully, it carried on the next day until 5 PM even though checkout time was at 11 AM so I was able to do all my work around campus and not have to pay for extra parking.

    There was little that bothered me. If you're looking to spend much time in the room, particularly as a couple it might be a little snug. The rooms are on the upper floors and served by two lifts. One of those was out of order (on and off) throughout my stay which was slightly irritating bugt now I'm nitpicking.

    The rooom was immaculately clean and well appointed, with eveything you would need for a comfortable stay. The accommodation is well located on UBC campus with lots of cafes and restaurants on site. The suites are a 2 minute walk from the campus bus station with a number of bus routes to attractions, the city etc. Buses are frequent and very affordable.

    It was really expensive. I feel UBC is really dinging you for the price of being on campus. I was actually a little shocked. Yes, it's a "suite" or I would say studio room with a kitchenette, but with parking it was a hair under $300. It wasn't worth that.

    The room was very clean and the bed was comfy, but I would have expected a little more plush for the cost. There was also something weird with the pillow cases. They were so stiff, they almost felt like plastic. Maybe a bit too much starch there.

    Nothing. Everything was great for us.

    We pretty much liked everything about it. True that it is not in the city centre, but being at the UBC Campus gave us another view into Vancouver. The room was clean and had a good size. We used the kitchen and it worked perfectly. We liked it so much, that the plan wasn't to stay here but in another hotel. However, we spend two nights here before and liked it so much that we cancelled the other hotel and rebooked here. So 10/10 for us.

    I think it could have been priced better. I stayed at the Sutton place hotel the previous night for the same price and it was a much nicer hotel.

    I was not aware that there was a breakfast. The room was basic but clean and comfortable. Ubc campus is beautiful. Bus ride from down town was simple. The kitchenette was useful.
