"Pod-style in Vancouver"
Looking for little rest in the city? Shaughnessy Village offers teeny tiny rooms, at a fraction of the cost of other hotels. Originally a seniors' home, the Village was converted into the world's largest bed and breakfast in time for Expo '86. With each floor (12 in total) donning a nautical theme and a different colour palette, the hotel has a 240 15-square-metre studios (plus a few larger rooms), equipped with a microwave, a double bed-sofa, a mini fridge, a balcony, and get this, a fireplace! And the opulence doesn't end here. The Village has a ton of amenities - salt water pool, health spa, tanning bed, indoor Jacuzzi and spa, beautiful courtyard, restaurant, hair salon and some of the city's most amazing views. Catering to budget-conscious travellers, stopover tourists, hospital visitors, international students and anyone looking for a night's rest, Shaughnessy Village is worth a peek.
