Review of the Days Inn on the Harbour Victoria
21 October 2011
Overall, I would stay there again. As has been said, the location can't be beat.
The rooms were small, but fine. Having an oven range was a surprise, so we are
able to cook and save money on meals. Bathrobes were a pleasant surprise. On the
negative, the bathtub barely drained, the kitchen was lacking any knives to cut
with, and there was no A/C (we were there in October, so no problem). There was
no conditioner in the bathroom either (I can't live without conditioner). There
are two central issues, though, that left me with a bad feeling. One was the
coffee packet (you know, the cheapy micro-sized packets). One was provided,
which makes enough coffee for one person. When I asked for another, I was told
it would be $1.00. I was shocked. Most hotels give away good coffee! The other
was the fact that we left our camera in the room with pictures that I really
needed on it. I called immediately after discovering this (on our drive back to
the ferry) and first they said "they'd look around for it." After insisting that
they please go look right now, they did, and found it. I was so relieved. They
said they'd mail it back and charge the costs to our card. No problem. However,
it has been two weeks today and still nothing in the mail. I called. They
haven't even mailed it yet! Had I known it would take so long, I would have
turned the car around and picked it up! The problem is I really needed those
photos. I asked why they didn't say it would be so long, and they responded that
since it takes an hour to go mail something, they only do it every couple weeks
or so. I had a presentation to do at work that failed thanks to not having the
photos. The poor customer service/accommodation surprised me. Hopefully this was
a unique situation.
Room Tip: I thought from the website that all rooms had kitchens...not true.

This was a great location for my visit to Victoria. Having a harbour facing room
made for an interesting, in a positive way, 'window' on inner harbour. The room
was comfortable and nicely furnished as I had experienced a few years earlier.
Downtown free parking was a bonus. I stayed here in October and the room was
quite comfortable. Bottom line is I would stay here again and suggest it to
friends. This has to be one of the best values in Victoria.
Room Tip: Ask for a harbour facing room. Watching the harbour traffic is a great
diversion.

The room we had facing the harbour was clean and cozy. The furnishings are
updated and much nicer than what I expected. House coats were even supplied. The
hotel also had free parking which seemed a rarity when looking at downtown
hotels in Victoria.
We had to extend our stay for a couple hours and the front desk was more than
happy to accommodate us.
Its a bit noisy facing the ferry, but for one night it was worth it to have the
nice view.

I'm not sure why this hotel has some bad reviews, our stay was fine. Our room
was for 4 adults and a dog. The room was very clean, front desk service was very
polite and helpful. The location is excellent. The beds were just doubles not
queens, queens would have been nice but we were just there for two nights so it
wasn't a problem. Rooms are on the small size but we don't spend much time in
the room anyway. The restaurant has a very good breakfast also. I will stay
there again. |
