I had a good stay here. Nothing fancy but has everything you need and facilities were clean. Friendly staff, quick and easy check-in and check-out. My only complaints: - the parking lot is very tiny and hard to navigate if you are driving a larger vehicle. - I didn’t realize the location was such an industrial park when I did the booking, so there is nothing around and you need to drive or walk 25 minutes to get to anything that feels like you’re in the city. Overall it was a perfectly fine place to stay! And I would say that the downside of the location is reflected in the price, so it made for an affordable trip to Victoria by being a little on the outskirts.

Lovely older, but nicely renovated hotel. Great big soaker tub in the king room, hard surfaces on the furniture making them clean looking. Larger fridge / freezer combo bigger than most. Friendly staff and good value. Would have given 5 stars except there was residual from previous guest’s bowel movement in the toilet which tells me it most certainly wasn’t cleaned therefore leaving me to question what else was missed!! Needless to say our sleep was less comfortable than planned
