Description:
The University of British Columbia Conference Centre is in a pretty, forested setting on the tip of Point Grey, convenient to Kitsilano and the University itself. If you don't have a car, it's a half-hour bus ride from downtown. Although the on-campus accommodations are actually student dorms most of the year, rooms are usually available. The rooms are nice, but don't expect luxury. The 17-story Walter Gage Residence offers comfortable accommodations, many on the upper floors with sweeping views of the city and ocean. One-bedroom suites come equipped with private bathrooms, kitchenettes, TVs, and phones. Each studio has a twin bed; each one-bedroom features a queen-size bed; the six-bedroom Tower -- a particularly good deal for families -- features one double bed and five twin beds. The West Coast Suites, renovated in 2007, are the most appealing, and have a very reasonable price.

Quite mediocre at high prices

Of course, one can decide to stay in a student dormitory room for 180 dollars per night, with no reception and no services available and the only telephone number given pointing to...
