Budget Inn - Patricia Hotel

Came to Vancouver for a vacation and given that it was the Canada Day long weekend and we wanted to go to Canada Place for the celebration this was pretty much our only option within the area (unless we wanted to pay $300-500/night for a room). We reviewed the photos and information online, and decided it should be ok. When we arrived - it was a WHOLE different story. The elevator seemed ready to fail, and was stopping at least 3-6" below the floor; the halls were creaky and stank of stale oldness and smoke; you could hear people in their rooms on your room and above/below; the area is not a good one (sirens went by within 15min of being in the building) and there are working girls and drug addicts lining the streets; etc. The part that pushed me over the edge was when we opened our rooms' door, and discovered that the bathroom (stand-up shower and toilet) were inside of a closet with a single sliding door. We turned around and went back down and cancelled our remaining booking and went elsewhere.
