The check in time 4 pm is a bit late and if you come earlier they want to charge you $25. the idea of paid parking at an outside not monitored parking lot is not good as you can park in the street between 8pm and 8 am for free. It is like they are just trying to make more money on top of the cost of the room. Just my opinion

Everything was great! Nearby parking in Victoria is hard to find. The Strat has parking nearby for 15$. Bar downstairs, breakfast and many different restaurants all walking distance. Harbour area is down the street. Lots of shopping. Hotel staff was very pleasant.

This was a great location. I was there in the middle of the week for business purposes. So nice. Very clean. Quiet. Normal hotel sounds so not quiet and sad just no wild parting or weed coming through the vents. A really nice stay. Would stay again in a heartbeat. Next time I will go to Big Bad John’s. this time I went just across the street to Noodle Box. Convenient! The city view was pretty. This stay was a lot nicer than I expected.
