This place is now going to be my go-to place to stay when I go to Victoria. It is centrally located and walking distance to so much good food and things to see. I have no problem sharing a bathroom, and room size isn't important as all I'm doing in my room is sleeping and relaxing. The wi-fi was strong, and as far as I'm concerned, that's all I really need.

Love it, love it, love it!

Very welcoming! The staff are helpful, food is amazing. I travelled alone, but felt like I went with friends. I lucked out on some amazing roommates who I know will stay life long friends! Highly recommended! Will stat here no doubt any time I visit Victoria!

Comfortable. The mist like shower head is weird. Other than that, the experience is great.
