I didn’t like that the parking was extra and half a block away and not covered. I had to walk in the rain to get back to the hotel. There was a signed that said bottled water was free but when I asked for two she said it was $3/ bottle. The fixtures in the bathroom were dated, even the shower head. I think it was a bath fitter renovation on the bathtub and a part sticks out bothering me when I was showering.

There was construction on our floor that was very noisy. Victoria Police were banging on a door at 1:00am in the morning (no fault of the hotel) and the parking was mentioned to be unsafe. If I was 20 and there for a party it would have been good enough.

We always enjoy staying at this property. The rooms are clean and comfortable. Everything is within walking distance. The parking is easy and convenient. The only complaints that I have this time are the front staff didn't accommodate our early arrival which they usually do, not even with a fee. Also, the housekeeping staff was very noisy in the morning waking me up at 7:30 am everyday, which I didn't appreciate while on holiday.

Strathcona was nice, much too expensive for the tiny rooms. Our room had a view of a wall from another building about a foot away, couldn’t see any sky or nature whatsoever. That being said, you pay for the experience with everything attached. Very convenient location for tourism. Good for couples, not great for families as it can be loud. They didn’t let us bring a friend to our room for a visit and security checked cameras and came up to escort them out. Overall great for a one-time experience. Wouldn’t stay here again. $300 per night, no breakfast. Not even any conditioner in the showers, but you can ask the front desk.
