The room was clean and very comfortable. We were first a little concerned about noise as we were the end room by the street but it was a non-issue. The bedroom was very quiet at night. The location was perfect for walking to anything we wanted to see. It was also in walking distance to many restaurants and public transit which we used to go to the Butchart Gardens (highly recommend). Also walkable to the FRS Clipper ferry for transportation to Seattle. We would stay here again!

The property is very well located and had a nice kitchenette. The building is starting to show its age and could use a refresh.

The hotel was very clean and because of a mishap we had to stay an extra night which they accommodated for the same price as the other nights and switched rooms around so we could stay in the same room. It was very close to everything and the bus stop was right in front. the buses take you everywhere and they are very clean. It was a wonderful stay in a wonderful city.

Very well equipped quiet room. Tight but well organized parking. Not that far from downtown core. We only wish we had reserved all of our stay in Victoria (trip broken in two parts) at the Helm.

Our room was clean, the bed was comfortable. We walked everywhere, the location was great. It was nice to have a refrigerator/freezer, and although we didn’t cook in the room, everything was there to be able to do that. The drip coffeemaker was small, and it would have been nice to have an extra coffee packet without having to call for it. Otherwise, no complaints and I’d stay there again.

There are many different kinds of rooms in this motel. We've been in several of them over the years. This time we were on the first floor next to the reception area. I would not recomment rooms 111-113. It's noisy with people coming and going. The beds are comfortable, the pillows are not. Parking is 10.50 a night on top of the 300 bucks you'll pay for a room. Note that it is scramble parking, There's always fresh coffe and fruit in the lobby.

Our stay was comfortable and the room had everything we needed. The bed and pillows were good and the kitchenette was a bonus. On-site parking was handy and well priced. Location was excellent and a short walk to the centre of town and all the main attractions z
