Great for the budget traveler

Got it for a lot less than any other hotel in the area. I only use a hotel for sleeping so it was fine - quiet rooms - but ask for a top floor room or a room away from the parking lot - one side of the second floor actually lines up directly with the lot. It's just over a mile from downtown with a bus stop near by. There is a recreation trail just across from it for a nice walk next to the water or along a tree lined paved trail. The hotel staff was very friendly and the restaurant had "Texas Hold 'em", "Magic Bingo" and "Karaoke" nights. Hotel doesn't appear to have been remodeled since the 70's. Free internet in the lobby was a good bonus. If you can get this hotel for a deal, it is well worth it.

A bit out of the way

Saw all the sights. The Hotel was a bit to far from the downtown. The trip was good.

bad location

We were early so room wasn't ready upon check-in. Front desk clerk very helpful in storing luggage behind desk for 5-hours! Had to ride city bus to downtown Victoria, room too far to walk. Also, the location and area run down or in process of renovation. Didn't feel safe on street. For the price, you shouldn't have to ride the city bus! And, no shuttle to airport! Taking a cab was stressful as the cabbie was nuts!
