Our room was clean but there were holes in the sheets. And the ceiling in our bathroom dripped water through a large crack in it when the people above us showered.

<BR/>

Positives: Location, coffee maker, fridge and safe. Quiet rooms.

Negatives: Water leaking from a crack in the bathroom ceiling.

Restaurant on site, decent food, a little pricey room does not deserve a one star rating. Carpets very dirty, bathroom not cleaned, no air conditioning and I had to climb on top of a table to get the ceiling fan on, the safe was broken but, the staff were very friendly and helpful.

Positives: Free parking, very friendly staff.

Negatives: No air conditioning, carpets very dirty, did not feel very safe. In room safe broken.

Positives: Location. Could walk to attractions and shopping in Victoria.

Negatives: No air conditioning. Not as clean as I would like.

We stayed in the courtyard room, which I highly recommend above a standard room. The walls are wood paneled and reminded me of being in a lodge in the woods. The room was clean, the bed was comfortable, and the bathroom was fine. They even provided shampoos and conditioners, which was nice considering it was the cheapest hotel in Victoria. The adjacent cafe is perfect for families and the food was really good. The hotel is very conveniently located (approx. 15 minutes walk from downtown) and the parking was free. For the price, I'd definitely stay there again.

Positives: Clean, excellent value for price.

Negatives: Outside room (not in the courtyard) were not as safe because there was not an extra security door.

I would not recommend this hotel for more than a couple of nights. It is simple with no thrills, but a great rate. The room was small but clean.

Positives: Great location in Victoria.

Negatives: Small rooms, but clean.

Would only stay in the courtyard rooms, good location. Would not stay here again.

Positives: Good location, courtyard was better than the regular room.

Negatives: Wouldn't stay again, paid too much, and didnt like the smell of the room.

We were rather skeptical of this hotel because it was only a 1-star rating; however, it's a great value for the price. We stayed in the courtyard rooms, which I definitely recommend above the regular city-view rooms. They are located in a section that has an additional door for security and it set apart from the rest of the hotel. The walls are wood paneled and reminded me of staying in a lodge in the woods. The room was clean and they even provided shampoo and conditioner. It's only a 15 minute walk to downtown Victoria and the parking is free. There is an adjacent diner where we ate both breakfast and dinner. I would definitely stay here again because the price was right; it was clean, quiet, conveniently located, and an overall great experience.

Positives: Good value for the price, clean, convenient location.

Negatives: Felt that rooms outside of the courtyard were not as safe.

The rooms are old, the front desk personnel are very unfriendly and not helpful at all. Because of the weather in Victoria Ileurned, it is very important to have something more than an old room with only a fan.

Positives: It was close to downtown and easy to get to a bus. It is central located.

Negatives: The hotel is ok for one night. It did not have any thing to offer. It is ok to sleep and leaf.

Paul's is located conveniently, features large, comfortable and clean rooms and the staff is very friendly and helpful.

Positives: Many nice extra touches, such as books describing tourist activities, history of Paul's, and Victoria.

Negatives: Wish there was room service. Breakfast did not meet our expectations for value/price.

The place is for a casual traveler just looking for a place to stay. So if that's what you want it's all good.

Positives: I like the staff and there hospitality.

Negatives: Location wasn't horrible, but could have been better.

This hotel was very clean. The sheets were very old and thin, and wouldn't stay tucked in. Compared to the US hotels I have stayed in, it was not very nice.

Positives: The staff was extremely helpful with tourist information.

Negatives: This was an old hotel-dark inside the rooms, not in a great location.

A dozen newer rooms appended to an old hotel, but rooms lack air conditioning and have only one window for ventilation and no fan, and it is right on the walkway. Separate door for the block or rooms, but usually left propped open. Location in the bad side of downtown, and the clientele of the rest of the hotel reflects the location so did not feel safe. Well below one-star quality--significant disappointment.

Positives: Interesting patio area.

Negatives: No ventilation, no air conditioning, only can open a window to the walkway so no security.
