This was such an easy interview. Very friendly and helpful people.
There are lines outside (side of the bldg) with times for appts but just go to the guard and tell them you are there for a K1 and you will go right in. The 'interview' takes place standing at a window and is nothing but a chat basically.
My appt was at 10, I was out by 12 and picked up my visa at 2.
The Days Inn is affordable but small.....really close though. They will keep your bags since you can't take anything in with you.

I really though too much of it. I thought it was going to be an interrogation in a small office. But it wasn't what I thought it wouldve been. You get called up to a window cubicle type thing and the interview (not formal feely) was held through this plexi glass window.. They are really friendly at the Vancouver US Consulate. Have no fear. However, I now fear my AOS interview at the Seattles USCIS. Good luck to me.

Just returned from Montréal... debriefing time!
I'd stayed at McGill's Royal Victoria College, one of the university's residences that's open to the public in the summer. It's a 15 min's walk from the US Consulate. At $56.36/night (incl. taxes), it's comparable to a private room in a hostel.
My K1 interview was on Thurs morning. Arriving just before 7am, I was the first one there. A guard opened the doors at 7:30am -- be sure to have both your passport and interview letter ready!
Went through the room with the x-ray machines. I'd kept my keys inside my portfolio (I didn't bring a purse with me, and I'd worn clothes with no pockets); that was a bad idea, because the guards had to take the keys out to examine them.
Walked downstairs to the waiting room with the elevator and the photo booth. The photo booth takes only loonies and toonies, in case you want to get your passport photos done there.
As most of you k... read complete review

I stayed at the Days Inn down the street (10min walk) as the closer Centreville hotel was booked due to the Jazz Festival. I was able to leave my car in their lot with their parking pass which was nice.
I had zero problems going through security (although I think the lady that controls the door lock enjoys having people push and pull a couple of times before she opens it).
The lady that asked for all of my paperwork was polite and patient as I pulled the requested documents from my file. The cashier was super nice and almost too cheerful for so early in the day
The gentleman that interviewed me was awesome. Did everything he could to make me feel comfortable. We got the official stuff 'out of the way' (his words) and then he chatted with me more about our hobby than our relationship and then said he'd not keep me any longer! It took about 8 minutes. I had my Visa sent to me via pre-paid courier and I received it by... read complete review
