Since our cruise ended in Vancouver on a Friday, we decided to stay the weekend. The Loden was perfect. Free cruise bikes to explore the city, Stanley Park and the seawall and close to great restaurants (though nearby good breakfast spots on weekend mornings were a challenge to come by during the weekend). The staff was amazingly attentive and helpful, particularly Jessie at the front desk. She had great suggestions for things to see and do and restaurants to visit.
