A great spot I visit regularly as Victoria is a great day's bike ride from Vancouver.

Staff members are nice and location is excellent. The facilities are very clean and tidy. But the dorm room holds too many people and there were too many people going in and out of the room during night time rest period. This was quite disruptive to a good night sleep.

Not too sure about the long, large female dorm ( D ) as it was quite cold and draughty. As it wasn't full we were able to "borrow" a cover off an empty bed. Kitchen excellent.

Perhaps after staying in some of HIs Argentina Hostels my expectations were far too high. For 2 this Hostel costs the same as a cheaper hotel. We chose to stay here for a fun environment and to meet other travelers. While we booked a 6 person co-ed room, the room came through as a 20+ man dorm. The stay felt more like a high-end men's shelter than the fun hostel experience I was hoping for. It's relatively safe, clean etc but for the money I would just stay at a hotel if there are 2 or more people. Also, I found the pricing misleading. The price is higher then expected if you're not an HI member, and the guy at the door screwed up on our deposits so charged an additional few dollars more.

2 major bad points: - No breakfast included - Impossible to park car nearby to load/unload luggage without getting a fine from City of Victoria

The rooms were in an open space, so although each little block was for 4 beds there was a total of +20 people sleeping in the same place. A bit smelly, and I had bad luck with a guy snoring really loud. I would recommend searching for other alternatives as Victoria is a small town.
