This is a great choice when flying out of YVR. Check in and check out are fast. The beds are comfortable, the rooms are large and equipped with kitchenettes (microwave, sink, mini fridge, coffee). My onlg complaint about the room was the lack of ventilation in the bathroom. Moxies on site is a great bonus as is the free shuttle. This hotel strikes a great balance between price and functionality. Would recommended.

My stay at the Sandman Hotel was enjoyable overall—comfortable rooms, friendly staff, and a seamless check-in process. The airport pickup was fantastic, with a courteous and professional shuttle driver who made a great first impression. Unfortunately, the airport drop-off (Pick up from sandman hotel March 22, 2025 at 9:50 AM) experience was a stark contrast . The driver was unhelpful and rude, insisting we place all four large bags and two small bags in the seating area, creating a safety hazard. To our frustration, he later loaded luggage into the back for guests at the Sandman Signature Hotel, revealing there was space available. This inconsistency in service left us feeling undervalued and questioning whether it was because we stayed at the regular Sandman. While I’ve always been a loyal guest, this experience has made me hesitant to return. I hope the hotel addresses this issue to ensure all guests receive equal and respectful treatment.

The property was decent. The staff was very cordial. I had some hiccups with shuttle. I was told the bus would come at 10am at the singnature so I was at 9:59am heading the bus when the driver closed the back door and drove off. I waited until 10:30am, only that the driver did not cone until 10:35am. That was the shuttle I eventually took to the airport. Both Sandman and Sandman signature staff were very cordial.
