“No frills, but totally decent”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 October 2011
1
person found this review helpful

It doesn't take a genius to figure out that this is an older hotel. Thankfully its been flawlessly kept up, so even if the decor is dated, the rooms are squeaky clean. Didn't use the pool, so can't comment on that. Didn't need the staff for anything beyond checking in and out; they were very friendly and gave no hassle. Transit-friendly if you know the bus routes. Failing that it takes about 20 minutes to walk downtown. Stayed here over a long weekend and will do so again.

Room Tip: one of the "back rooms" (ie through the breezeway) back up onto a car dealership, so less...

“thumbs up overall”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 6 September 2011

Pros: clean, nice staff, can do currency exchange, bus to downtown right outside

Cons: I wouldn't quite say it's walkable to downtown. Our non-smoking room had a window above an ashtray outside, which didn't prove to be an issue during our stay (we just shut the window when we left for the day).

Overall would stay here again if affordable places right in the heart of downtown are booked.

“Blue Ridge Inn... Near Mayfair Mall”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 5 September 2011

We stayed here while in Victoria. It is very central to a plastic surgery clinic, the Mayfair mall, Dennys, Kentucky Fried Chicken etc... Not too far to the inner harbor. Clean, quiet rooms. Very friendly staff.

Room Tip: There is a discount for those who are in town for medical reasons- ask about the rate.

“LOVED IT!!!!!!!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 24 August 2011

I have worked in hotels for years with thisjob I have also stayed in many hotels. I must say this was one of the best experiences I have ever had. It was clean and the staff you couldn't help but fall in love with the. We traveled with 5 kids youngest being 6 the oldest being 15, the staff made up and extra bed on the floor at last minute. We had a late night chill the front desk staff was so kind to run us up some more blankets and was quick to ask if there was anything else they could do for us. I can't wait to go back there again and again.

“Nice, clean motel, just a bit too far out”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 24 August 2011

This motel had everything we needed, staff were friendly, rooms were clean and big. It was just a bit too far out and on a main road next to a car dealership. Downtown is walkable and the friendly reception staff showed as an alternitive route from just walking down Douglas St, it took us along the coast and was far prettier. It takes around 30 mins to walk into downtown and there are buses running from just outside for anybody not wanting to walk. They also offer a courtesy shuttle bus upon request.
