Arbutus was really great for what I needed. Close to the DT area, clean and everyone was really nice and helpful. The only downside was the homeless ppl around it that even tho is not their fault it made it difficult for me to feel comfortable walking around

My room was unbearably warm in the middle of April when it was chilly outside! I had the window wide open so that I could try and get some sleep. I tried the air conditioner, but it was so loud as there was an issue with the fan or something inside of it. In the early morning and employee went outside and had a cigarette right outside my window, which disturbed me and pissed me off. I will never stay there again.

Clean and renovated rooms with comfortable beds and good black out curtains. The bath mat and a face cloth were folded into a fancy design. There is no elevator, but rooms on second floor don’t need stairs access from front lobby. The stairs themselves aren’t an issue, but if you can’t do stairs, maybe a note to add when booking. It’s a basic and practical hotel. The rooms are cozy and the surrounding neighborhood was very quiet. We slept with the window open to get a nice breeze and slept soundly with no disruptive noises from the nearby semi busy road. This road is on the far side of a parking lot for rental vehicles. The staff were friendly, efficient and courteous. There is a rental car agency desk in lobby. We enjoyed our stay. A nice place to lay our head after running around Victoria and surrounding areas during the day.

Good value in a basic, older hotel. Rooms were clean and comfortable but of older build quality. One room had a mobile heater but was not required. Air conditioner was functional. Staff provided excellent service and were friendly.

Older hotel with smaller rooms and no elevator. Staff are friendly and helpful. Check-in was simple and quick. Interior of hotel hallways/stairwells/rooms impressed me with its cleanliness. Property is shared with National car rental outlet. Convenient if you wanted to rent and start your trip from here. The price was quite reasonable. Spoons Cafe is just across the street and is open for breakfast and lunch till 4 pm. Great food and ambiance. Very handy for this location.
