“This historic boutique hotel stands out for its prime downtown address, placing guests steps from Victoria's Inner Harbour. Though some may find the accommodations a bit dated, the on-site pubs, with their extensive beer selections, provide a cozy, convivial atmosphere. I think the value lies in the location and unique, if somewhat timeworn, character.”
