Wow, thatīs really bad news if itīs true. Iīm having a very hard time believing the accurary of the info you were given. Have you tried calling FPC?
The slightly iriitating thing is that the "junior suite(s)" (which actually is a 1-bedroom suite) category was created/"invented" after the hotel had been operating for several months. The official statement was "reallignment of room descrptions to reflect the views etc.", and I have no reason to not believe this statement, but of itīs always possible the category was created to deal with "suite upgraders".

Debating whether having the extra space is worth it in this case, or if the view should be a deal-breaker. (We could have room service for breakfast and a bottle of wine in the junior suite every night and still come out better).
i agree Fairmont Gold at the Pacific Rim is fantastic, I could have kept sitting on the patio on the 22nd floor all day.
The 6th floor is the lowest possible floor you can get IIRC, the suite will likely provide good views of the rooftop of the Convention Center.
My guess is that itīs the suite directly beneath the SkyDeck Suite, so the view would be pretty limited.
The suite will be pretty extactly 2x the size of a Fairmont room, whether itīs worth it is up to you.
