10/10 Exceptional

Facility was old but maintained. Fresh paint and very clean!!! The window was open with an old fashioned slide bolt to hold it. I left it open rain and shine, room temperature was very comfortable night and day. No screens but no bugs came in. Bathroom was super clean and available when I went to use it. There were also 4 more on the floor! Next door was a half way house/homeless support (?) But I was never bothered by the users of the facility. Location is central to Victoria Tourist areas and 1/2 block from busy street with public transit. Attentive desk and pleasant fellow travelers.

It’s not a hotel
It’s not a hotel it’s a hostel so that’s what you get. Price includes two meals and a drink. Lots of available shared clean bathrooms and a big stainless countertop three sink kitchen with plates etc. Great little pub with a capable friendly barman (when I was there). Junkies and homeless in the area and it’s an old building so it’s not for everyone but it’s my new go to when I have to visit my old hometown.

the place was clean, quiet, and super convenient, right in the heart of downtown. it's what you would expect from a hostel: everyone was kind but minded their own businesses and did their part to keep the communal kitchen tidy. I especially enjoyed the free breakfast AND free dinner for guests every night, great for travellers on a budget. I walked everywhere I needed to go for the weekend and was always greeted with a smile when I returned
