    The sink in the bathroom didn’t drain

    Room was great and I loved all the little bonuses you don’t normally get in a hotel room like the big fridge and the appliances

    It was a little noisy. There was a storm and some kind of gutter system that flushed water down a wall next to that apartment.

    Location was good.

    There was no do not disturb sign for some reason which I didn't like. Also wish they had extra blankets as I got kinda cold. I also wish they had lotion in the toiletries and a full length mirror somewhere. also found it weird I could see myself in the mirror when I took a shower

    I liked the location and space. Wish I had a reason to stay longer as the full kitchen was perfect for a longer stay. Had lots of appliances and a full fridge which was nice. Lots of storage as well which would be good for a longer stay.

    Perfect accommodation on UBC campus

    There were some building works going on in front of the building which I did not mind, but others might feel affected by.

    Very warm and informative welcome by a lovely receptionist. The room was very clean and well looked after. Housekeeping staff was exceptionally friendly. Room is bright with a big window. Bathroom is clean and all products are provided. Bed and bedding were very comfortable and provided for a good night sleep. Ideal location for visiting UBC and exploring the campus and its surroundings. Trails to the beaches are close by. Small kitchen unit with everything that is needed to prepare meals. There is ample choice from outlets on campus, though. Close to bus stops to downtown with regular services.

    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

    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.
