Location is excellent, walkable distance to all the major attractions in downtown Victoria. Friendly staff, I am rating them 4 as we paid for two nights for parking and yet on night 1 we didn’t find a spot in the parking lot to park. Also every towel in the had hair strands on it, we even ordered fresh towels and even those had hair on it.

We chose the hotel because of location and having access to a room via an elevator. I have an injured hip and back and am unable to use stairs. We checked in and were told that the elevator was out of service for the weekend. We checked out the following morning cutting our stay short by 2 days. The Manager was willing to reimburse us for one day. She told us to contact Expedia for the other days prepaid. Still waiting for the refund.
