Hotel Location
Guest Reviews & Ratings
The hotel was in need of maintenance and in very poor condition, especially the room 095 I stayed in. However, the service was top-notch with friendly and professional staff. The location was ideal for both visiting friends and doing business, despite some sketchy spots. The dining options were limited with no included breakfast. The facilities were okay, considering the overall state of the hotel.
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. While the rooms weren't ready when I arrived and the carpet smelled like cigarettes, the staff was helpful in addressing the issues, even offering a 20% discount. The location was convenient, but noise from the lobby disturbed my sleep. The dining options were satisfactory, though nothing extraordinary.
The hotel is in a pleasant location, offering a good base to explore the area. The rooms, while showing signs of age, are spacious and equipped with useful amenities. The service had its ups and downs, with some staff members being accommodating while others fell short. The location is convenient for accessing attractions and shopping areas. Overall, value for money seemed reasonable considering the facilities provided.
The hotel is conveniently located in downtown, making it easy to access local amenities. The rooms, although showing signs of wear and tear, come with a functional coffee maker, but cleanliness could be improved. The service received was friendly and helpful, offering valuable advice on exploring Victoria. The location is central with good accessibility and adequate parking. Dining options are satisfactory with a nearby restaurant. Overall, a decent choice with room for improvement.
The hotel's location is awesome, close to downtown and offering free ice in the parking facility. The rooms, though small, are clean and functional. The service was a mixed bag, with some staff being very attentive and polite while lacking assistance in emergencies. The dining experience was good but limited to certain products. Overall, the hotel provides value for money with a few drawbacks.
The hotel was in a convenient location within walking distance of downtown and right by the bus stop. The rooms were clean and spacious, but the housekeeping service could be more sociable. The dining options were limited, but the location was ideal for exploring the city.
The hotel had some issues with cleanliness in the rooms and the bathroom was in bad shape, leading to having to switch rooms. However, the hotel offered 2 king beds which was a plus, but there was a lingering chemical smell. The service was helpful, but accountability was lacking for the issues experienced. The location was decent and accessible to everything, being the only redeeming factor. Dining options were limited, and no breakfast was included. Overall, the stay was a mixed experience with some positive and negative aspects.
