The rooms are clean, but they only change bed sheets and made beds probably when you leave for good. During my stay they only changed toiletries if needed. No bed was made. Also, there is no sing or picther to get water, although the bathroom water tap has drinking water, it's a toilet room and salmonela could fly and thrive on the faucet, even at home. Not good. If they cannot install a sink, Im fine with a pitcher I can go and fill at the only water fountain by the reception. Or they could install other ones on each floor. The food is a 3 from 1 to 10. Other than that, no complains. Nice people and safe there.

We had a room booked and they double booked. Arrived to check in and were told that we didn’t have a room at 8:00 pm. All the hotels in Victoria were booked. No one bothered to phone us. It was an absolute disaster. The Waddling Dog was not helpful at all!
