Carpet was stained. Room was incredibly loud being only in the 1st floor and on the street. Shower is very small but the bathroom was really large. A lot of homeless adjacent the area. More than a few blocks away from the bay. Really dated furnishings.

The hotel building is old and floors were creaky but it was clean and our room was quiet even though there was a bar and restaurant downstairs. Beds were comfortable and bathroom was clean with shampoos and soap dispenser. (I would have liked a hand soap dispenser in bathroom.)There was a microwave and mini fridge, and the hotel was walking distance to lots of shops and restaurants as well as to the marina area.

We love our stay here a lot with how convenient to walk to Victoria tourist spots but with the homeless issues around the front of hotel and surroundings just kinda made the rating lower. Everything about this hotel is very fancy but too bad about the homeless issues. I know they do no harm but while a mom travelling with just her 13 years old son, I don’t feel safe walking back to hotel after 8pm.

Wonderful Staff, Great Location

Wish we could have stayed longer than one night! The hotel is a short walk to the harbor and close to all main attractions & restaurants. We arrived early & were greeted by Arlene, who was so welcoming & helpful! She took our bags, marked a map with many great recommendations and even pulled some strings to get our room ready early. Great experience, we will return!
